This paper proposes an analytical model for analyzing the electromagnetic performance of axial flux permanent magnet machines (AFPMMs) with the coexistence of static rotor radial deviation and angular eccentricity. Firstly, a quasi-3-D analytical model for the healthy AFPMMs is established using the scalar potential. Then, the analytical model of AFPMMs with the mixed eccentricity is derived by the coordinate transformation and air gap length function. The end effect under the mixed eccentricity is considered by an end coefficient, which improves the accuracy of back EMF by 1.3%. Based on the analytical model, the air gap flux density distribution, back EMF and cogging torque of AFPMMs with different rotor radial distances and angular eccentricities are calculated and compared with the corresponding results obtained by finite element analysis (FEA). The proposed model has higher analysis speed and less computer performance requirement than FEA with the similar accuracy. According to the results, the back EMF reduces obviously as the rotor radial deviation distance increases, and the back EMF almost unchanged as the angular eccentricity becomes serious.
