Abstract: An axial field hybrid excitation synchronous generator (AF-HESG) is proposed for an independent power supply system, and its electromagnetic performance is studied in this paper. The distinguishing feature of the proposed generator is the addition of static magnetic bridges at both ends to place the field windings and the use of a sloping surface to increase the additional air-gap cross-sectional area. The advantage of the structure is that it achieves brushless excitation and improves the flux-regulation range. The structure and magnetic circuit characteristics are introduced in detail. Theoretical analysis of the flux-regulation principle is conducted by studying the relationship between field magnetomotive force, rotor reluctance, and air-gap flux density. Quantitative calculation is performed using a magnetomotive force (MMF)-specific permeance model, and the influence of the main parameters on the air-gap flux density and flux-regulation range is analyzed. Subsequently, magnetic field, no-load, and load characteristics are investigated through three-dimensional finite element analysis. The loss distribution is analyzed, and the temperature of the generator under rated conditions is simulated. Finally, a 30 kW, 1500 r/min prototype is developed and tested. The test results show good flux-regulation capability and stable voltage output performance of the proposed generator.
