Abstract
As for motors applied to electric vehicles, permanent magnet motors have a superior operation at high torque and a low-speed area because of significant losses due to flux weakening control at a high-speed area; meanwhile, induction motors (IMs) have a superior operation at a low torque and a high-speed area because of smaller torque and secondary copper loss. In this study, we propose a motor that can operate as a synchronous motor (SM) at a low-speed area and as an IM at a high-speed area (SMIM motor). We describe the configuration and principle of operation of the SMIM motor as well as examine and verify the conversion between SM and IM. The SMIM motor operates at high torque and efficiency in an 8- or 16-pole SM mode at a low-speed area and at high power and efficiency in a 4- or 8-pole IM mode at a high-speed area.
