This paper describes the cogging torque characteristics of a magnetic-geared motor with permanent magnets only on the high-speed rotor. The operational principle, which is different from that of the magnetic-geared motor with permanent magnets on the high-speed rotor and stator, is described. The torque characteristics, especially the order of the cogging torque, are mathematically formulated and verified by conducting 3-D finite element analysis and carrying out measurements on a prototype. Furthermore, a novel cogging torque reduction method is proposed and verified as well.
