Two initial generator designs have been proposed and their open-circuit simulation results have been acquired. Both designs are optimized in term of total number of coil turns, split ratio and pitch ratio to increase the performance of the machines. Finite element analysis software, Ansys Maxwell is used to conduct the simulation. From the optimizations, the optimal values of the optimized parameters for the designs are obtained. Optimization process conducted has optimized the designs in term of induced back EMF by more than 25. © 2016 IEEE. date: 2017 publisher: Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85011995427&doi=10.1109%2fICIAS.2016.7824126&partnerID=40&md5=756f87e0cf7d6af1b5883c8f5f8c2d55 id_number: 10.1109/ICIAS.2016.7824126 full_text_status: none publication: International Conference on Intelligent and Advanced Systems, ICIAS 2016 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9781509008452 citation: Zamri, N.A.M. and Ibrahim, T. and Nor, N.M.
