Abstract
In the preliminary design of the variable flux memory motor (VFMM), it is essential to examine the magnetization characteristics of the permanent magnet (PM) according to different direct-axis current pulses, which requires numerous parametric studies. In this paper, we propose a non-linear PM load-line model for concentrated winding surface-mounted PM VFMMs by making use of the magnetic equivalent circuit method, which is valid for investigating the PM magnetization state considering non-linear magnetic characteristics. The proposed method is validated through a comparison with the results of non-linear finite-element analysis.
