Three-phase induction machines are today a standard for industrial electrical drives. Cost, reliability, robustness and maintenance free operation are among the reasons these machines are replacing dc drive systems. The development of power electronics and signal processing systems has eliminated one of the greatest disadvantages of such ac systems, which is the issue of control. With modern te...

This paper proposes a new technique of using Axial Flux Induction Machines (AFIMs) for wind energy conversion systems. The Power Generation by wind is found to be enhanced by using a Twin Rotor Axial Flux Induction Machine (TRAFIM). By using Axial Flux Induction Machines, the gear box ratio can be reduced. The Single air gap and TRAFIM have been mathematically modeled in the environment of MATL...
