Abstract
The general flux weakening control method for permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) is changing the angle between the current and the no-load back-electromotive force (EMF). This paper presents a novel structure of PMSM with a conical rotor (CR-PMSM) and studies its flux weakening performance in detail. The CR can be moved outside in axial direction, which decreases the air-gap flux density as well as the effective space between the stator and the rotor. This method is effective in increasing the maximum speed and the output power of PMSM, including the surface-type and interior-type. 3-D finite-element model is used to simulate the magnetic-field distribution, flux weakening, and driving performance in CR-PMSM according to rotor axial displacement. The motoring performance of CR-PMSM is compared with that of the general method. A prototype machine with a cone angle of 5.7 and a rated power of 140 W at a rated speed of 300 rpm is designed and built to validate the theory.
