Abstract
This paper aims to design of a double stator axial field 12/10 SRM. Conventional and single stator axial field SRMs were reviewed to apply for automotive cooling fan. The axial field SRM has the advantage of shorter flux path, higher torque per volume and lower iron loss. However, there is axial eccentricity in single stator axial field SRM due to one side excitation. Therefore, a double stator type is designed in this paper to reduce the axial eccentricity. And the trapezoidal pole shape of the stator increases the flow of magnetic flux from stator to rotor and the torque region. The torque and efficiency are compared and tested with experiments.
