Abstract

This paper first presents a general two-dimension (2D) harmonic analytical solution for the magnetic field of electric machines in the Cartesian coordinates. In this solution, the relative permeance is directly considered in Laplace and Poisson’s equations, and the particular solutions in Cartesian coordinates are solved. By applying the complex Fourier separation method, with the boundary and interface conditions, the magnetic field in the inhomogeneous region is solved from system equations. Numerical examples validate the presented method and the obtained results have a satisfactory agreement with the finite element analysis. The proposed model in this paper has a significant value for modelling electric machines, such as linear permanent magnet (PM) machines and axial flux PM machines.
