In this paper, a new structure of permanent magnet axial flux-switching machine with segmented rotor has been introduced. The 12-pole stator has been installed between two 8-pole segmented rotors, and the excitation system has been connected to the rotor. This topology enhances the design of flux-switching permanent magnet machines. With this new topology, an increase in the torque density, the reduction the total harmonic distortion, simple construction, and the reduction of cogging torque have been achieved. The harmonic spectrum of the back electromagnetic force has also been improved. This topology provides an optimum power for the electric vehicles because of the short axial length and the high power density along with the low vibration and noise due to lower torque ripple and cogging torque. The three-dimensional time-stepping finite-element analysis is used to determine the flux linkage, back electromagnetic force, the output torque, and the cogging torque. A comparative analysis is made of the proposed topology and related topology in the literature.
