Özet

In this paper, the different working structure and unique design of the E-Core Transverse Flux Machine that is combined of transverse flux and reluctance principle is investigated for training bike application. Also, static magnetic characteristics of the machine are obtained with finite element analysis and experimental measurements. The modeling of the E-Core Transverse Flux Machine and its driver system are given. The whole system with all control algorithms for a training bike application is simulated and the performance curves are presented. Finally, the experimental tests done at the laboratory for the indoor training bike application are compared and verified with the results of the simulation.
