    Abstract: A field winding synchronous machine drive system includes a field winding synchronous machine having a stator and a rotor and a drive apparatus configured to drive the field winding synchronous machine. The stator has N m-phase stator coils wound on a stator core to create a rotating magnetic field, where N is an integer not less than 2 and m is an integer not less than 3. The rotor has at least one main field winding wound on a rotor core to create field magnetic flux. The drive apparatus includes N inverters each of which supplies m-phase alternating current to a corresponding one of the N m-phase stator coils. Specifically, each of the inverters supplies the corresponding m-phase stator coil with the m-phase alternating current which includes a fundamental-wave current and a time-harmonic current superimposed on the fundamental-wave current; the time-harmonic current has a shorter period than the fundamental-wave current.

The stator coil is provided in the slots of the stator core in a plurality of layers in a radial direction of the stator core, and includes a first winding and a second winding. The first winding extends around the stator core so as to be located at the (2n−1)th and 2nth layers of the stator coil, and has an end located at the 2nth layer, where n is a natural number. The second winding extends around the stator core so as to be located at the (2n+1)th and (2n+2)th layers of the stator coil, and has an end located at the (2n+1)th layer. The ends of the first and second windings, which are respectively located at the 2nth and (2n+1)th layers, are electrically connected to each other.

    Abstract: In a rotating electric machine, a stator includes a stator winding, a field winding includes a series-connection body including a plurality of winding portions, and a rotor includes main pole portions protruding from a rotor core in a radial direction. A harmonic current for inducing a field current in the field winding flows to the stator winding. A rectifying element is connected in series to the field winding, configures a closed circuit with the field winding, and rectifies the field current that flows to the field winding to flow in one direction. In a capacitor, a first end is connected to a connection point between adjacent winding portions and a second end is connected to either of both ends of the rectifying element. A partitioning portion is disposed between at least a single set of adjacent winding portions among the plurality of winding portions and includes a magnetic material.

    Abstract: A field coil type rotating electric machine includes a rotor where both a series resonant circuit including a first winding and a capacitor and a parallel resonant circuit including a second winding and the capacitor are formed. The first winding is radially located closer than the second winding to a stator. The capacitance of the capacitor and the ratio of the number of turns of the second winding to the number of turns of the first winding are set to have the amplitude of a total resultant magnetic flux lower than the amplitude of a field resultant magnetic flux. The total resultant magnetic flux is the resultant of the field resultant magnetic flux and magnetic flux generated by harmonic currents flowing in phase windings of a stator coil. The field resultant magnetic flux is the resultant of magnetic fluxes generated by harmonic currents flowing in the first and second windings.

    Abstract: A field winding type synchronous machine has a stator having a stator core to which a stator coil is wound, and a rotor that rotates while facing a peripheral surface of the stator with an electromagnetic gap therebetween. The rotor includes a rotor core having a plurality of main pole portions and interpole portions, main pole windings wound around the main pole portions, interpole windings wound around the interpole portions, and a full-wave rectifier circuit for energizing the field current to the main pole windings. The interpole windings produce the induced current by a magnetic flux generated by a time harmonic current superimposed on a fundamental wave of the stator coil. The electromagnetic gaps between the interpole portions and a circumferential surface of the stator are configured larger than electromagnetic between the main pole portions and the circumferential surface of the stator.
