Abstract：The doubly salient electric-excited motor has many advantages such as a simple structure, low manufacturing cost and high reliability, making it a good candidate for applications in electric vehicles, aerospace, and other fields. However, its large torque ripple and low torque density limit its development and applications. This paper proposes a new topology structure for the doubly salient electromagnetic machine (DSEM). The topology structure and working mechanism of the proposed DSEM are analyzed in detail. The combination of stator poles and rotor poles is elaborated, and the winding method of armature windings is described with the influence on the harmonics of EMF. The relationship between the pole-combination and harmonics of the magnetic field, together with the output torque, is investigated according to the magnetic field modulation mechanism, and the air-gap flux density harmonics of 18/10 and 18/11 DSEMs are obtained by finite element analysis. The influence of pole combination on motor characteristics is analyzed by finite element analysis, including the no-load electromagnetic performance, the torque features, and the loss characters, which shows the superiority of the DSEM with odd-number rotor poles. Finally, a prototype of the new 18/11 DSEM is manufactured and tested. The results show that due to the new winding method, the flux in armature windings changes bipolar, resulting in high sinusoidal flux linkages and, thus, a high sinusoidal EMF. The DSEM with odd-number rotor poles has more effective space magnetic harmonics than that with even-number rotor poles, almost with odd orders, resulting in higher output torque. Besides, due to the offset of even-order time-harmonics, the DSEM with odd-number rotor poles has higher sinusoidal EMFs and lower torque ripples. In addition, different rotor poles show different characteristics, as seen from the simulation results. The following conclusions can be drawn. (1) By adjusting the winding method of the field winding and the armature winding, the new type of DSEM realizes the bipolar change of the armature flux, and the back EMF has a high sinusoidal degree. (2) As can be seen from equations (21) and (26), the effective harmonics’ frequency of air-gap flux density in the odd-rotor pole motor is different from that in the even-rotor pole motor, resulting in different torque harmonics. (3) If the number of rotor poles is even, there are more even order harmonics in the motor back EMF, and the cogging torque and torque ripple are also large; if odd, the armature coils with opposite polarity are connected in series, and the even harmonics in the motor back EMF cancel each other, resulting in smaller harmonic content, cogging torque, and torque ripples. (4) The motor performance is optimal for the proposed DSEM with 18 stator poles when the rotor pole number is 11 or 13.
