Abstract
This article presents improved iron loss analytical prediction models for interior permanent magnet synchronous motors (IPMSMs) used in electric vehicles. The effects of slotting harmonics, pulsewidth modulation (PWM) carrier harmonics, temperature rise, and mechanical stress are considered in the proposed models. Specifically, by investigating the stator flux density as piecewise linear with trapezoidal waveform, the iron losses in the teeth and yoke regions are calculated separately, considering the different magnetic field distributions and waveforms. To deliberate the PWM harmonic influence, a correction coefficient is added to the hysteresis loss models, while the eddy current loss models are updated by summing all the eddy current losses caused by the power supplying current harmonics. Moreover, the coupling interaction effects of magnetic, thermal, and stress fields on the empirical coefficients of hysteresis and eddy current losses are analyzed in detail and also implemented in the iron loss prediction process. The feasibility and superiority of the proposed models are verified by numerical and experimental case studies on an IPMSM prototype.
