Characteristic Analysis of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machines Under Different Construction Conditions of Rotor Magnetic Circuits by Using Electromagnetic Transfer Relations

Abstract

This paper presents a comparative analysis of the characteristics of high-speed permanent magnet synchronous machines (PMSMs) with diametrically magnetized rotors under different construction conditions of the rotor magnetic circuit. An analytical method is adopted to predict the magnetic field distribution and to calculate the electrical parameters by using the transfer relations based on a two-dimensional model in a polar coordinate system. In addition, three types of PMSMs with diametrically magnetized permanent magnets are proposed in this work. The electrical parameters are estimated and the magnetic field distribution is analyzed for those models, and these results are compared with those obtained using the finite element method; the two sets of results are found to be in good agreement. On the basis of the analysis results, a real model manufactured and the validity of our results is demonstrated by performing suitable experiments.
