Optimal Design of Permanent Magnet Motors to Improve Field-Weakening Performances in Variable Speed Drives

Abstract

Two motors are studied and optimized for transportation applications. The objective is to design motors whose external model is well suited for conventional vector control. Hence, in the design procedure, the emphasis is on the back-electromotive force (EMF) waveforms and external parameters. The first topology is a surface-mounted (nonsalient pole) motor with segmented magnets reducing significantly selected harmonics. The second is an inset …
