A transverse flux machine (TFM) offers a higher specific torque and power density than a conventional radial flux machine, though at a cost of a poorer power factor. This paper provides an analytical approach to dimension an application-specific TFM and analyse its performance for first order calculations. Important features of TFMs are also outlined to facilitate an understanding of its operation and design. The design is explained with reference to an arbitrarily chosen application; a TFM wind generator. Only a surface mounted, single sided, outer rotor TFM generator design is treated. The method can however be equally applied to other types of TFMs, with proper adjustments of the analytical models.
