The rotor magnetic shunt structure hybrid excitation synchronous motor (RMS-HESM) has been widely used in marine propulsion due to its advantages of low loss and high efficiency. The objective of this paper is to improve the output torque capability of the hybrid excitation motor with a rotor magnetic shunt structure by conducting a multi-objective optimization design for the magnetic permeability structure. The first step involved establishing a mathematical analytical model of average torque and torque ripple based on the fundamental principle of motor magnetization. Next, the parameters of the magnetic permeability structure were designed and analyzed using the finite element simulation method. The impact of the variations in the parameters of the magnetic permeability structure on motor torque and no−load back electromotive force was examined. Additionally, a sensitivity analysis was performed on the design variables of the magnetic permeability structure, leading to the determination of optimization parameters based on the obtained results. The adaptive inertia weight-based particle swarm algorithm (PSO) was employed to conduct a multi-objective optimization design analysis. A comparative analysis on the average torque, torque ripple, and no−load back electromotive force of the motor before and after optimization was performed using the Maxwell and Workbench and Optislong joint simulation tools. This enhancement significantly improves the torque performance of the marine motor while simultaneously optimizing the no−load back electromotive force.
