In order to provide the general guidance in constructing the novel modular machines with redundant teeth, the available slot and pole number combinations based on the balanced conditions are summarized in this article. After the brief review of the machine structure, the general slot and pole number combinations are listed: Firstly, the conventional modular machines used to construct the proposed modular machines need to possess integer times of 3 repetitive machine units. Each machine unit should construct as a 3-phase type. Then, a redundant machine unit providing the redundant teeth for modularity is necessary. This redundant machine only has one pole pair to make sure the space waste is minimal. The slot number of this redundant machine is determined by the greatest common divisor of the slot and pole pair numbers of the conventional modular machine. Finally, the combination of the conventional modular machine and the redundant one generates the proposed modular machine. In order to clearly illustrate the influence of slot and pole number combinations on machine performance, four combinations are chosen as examples to be compared. A 42-slot/32-pole machine is prototyped and tested to validate the analyses.
