Three phase flux concentrating permanent magnet transverse flux machine (FCPM-TFM) is designed and constructed in target to get a compact design suitable to be used as an in-wheel motor. Three dimensional flux paths is the main characteristic of FCPM-TFM besides its high torque density compared to other high torque machines. Therefore, materials that allow the flow of flux in radial, axial and tangential paths are normally recommended. The effect of laminated structure is studied in comparison to soft composite material (SMC), which is considered as the best material for TFMs. Different models for the laminated structure have been employed using finite element (FE) program, Flux3D from Cedrat to show the influence of the laminated structure on the performance of the machine, though investigating the effect of the direction of the lamination in comparison to SMC material.
