3 Phase *Star Wiring - Axial Flux

[arc]

This is for a dual rotor alt. with 28 magnets on only one of the rotors.

Will make rotor spacing adjustable so 28 more magnets can be added to the second rotor later.

I think I've got it right but would appreciate it if someone would take a look to be sure I'm on the right track.

All coils wound the same direction

Every coil in each phase is wired in series.

End wires of each phase connected to the end wires of the other two phases.

1. Is there a more logical way to wire this up?
   
2. Is there anything I should do to insure that it won't be too difficult to rewire it to Delta at a later date when I add magnets to the second rotor.
   
   

(May or may not change to Delta but would like the option)

3) AC to travel down tower to 2 rectifiers at the panel.

Many Thanks!

Guess I'd better make it 3 Rectifiers or 6 Schottky diodes at the panel (not two).

Looks ok. If you want delta later bring out the 3 leads you have joined for the star point. You need all 6 leads for other than star connection.

Ok, I'll just make sure not to bury the end connections then.

I take that to mean that either way all of the coils in one phase are still connected end to end (in series), only the end connections change.

Thanks Flux!
