This paper investigates the cogging torque and torque ripple in high pole number interior permanent magnet generators, designed for direct-drive applications. Two interior permanent magnet rotor topologies — flat-shaped and V-shaped were considered with distributed wound and fractional slot concentrated wound stators. A comparison of torque performances was made between distributed wound and fractional-slot concentrated wound generators. Cogging torque was minimized by finding an optimum magnet pole arc length and torque ripples were minimized by finding optimum slot-opening and flux barrier shape. Design analysis was carried out in finite element models. It was found that flat-shaped rotor topology in the fractional slot concentrated wound stator can provide the best torque performance regarding low cogging torque and torque ripple. This finding was verified in constructed prototype machine.
