Abstract

The present paper refers to some examples that use the finite element method (FEM) in the process of analysis, design and optimization of the permanent magnet (PM) generators used in wind applications. The 2D-FEM program Opera 13 of Vector Fields is used in the analyzed examples. These examples refer to two types of radial flux low speed PM generators of 5 KW for wind applications. Some possibilities of electrical machine optimization, using the FEM-programming packages available today, are pointed out during the present paper.
