Purpose The purpose of this paper is to present a new optimal design for integral slot permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs) to shape the air-gap magnetic field in sinusoidal and to reduce the cogging torque, simultaneously. Design/methodology/approach For obtaining this new optimal design, the influence of different magnetizations of permanent magnets (PMs), including radial, parallel and halbach magnetization is investigated on the performance of one typical PMSM by using the conformal mapping (CM) method. To reduce the cogging torque even more, the technique of slot opening shift is also implemented on the stator slots of analyzed PMSM without reduction in the main performance, including the air-gap magnetic field, the average torque and back-electromotive force (back-EMF). Findings Finally, an optimal configuration including the Hat-type magnet poles with halbach magnetization on the rotor and shifted slot openings on the stator is obtained through the CM method, which shows the main reduction in cogging torque and the harmonic content of air-gap magnetic field. Practical implications The obtained optimal design is completely practical and is validated by comparing with the corresponding results obtained through finite element method. Originality/value This paper presents a new optimal design for integral slot PMSMs, which can include different design considerations, such as the reduction of cogging torque and the total harmonic distortion of air-gap magnetic field by using the CM method.

In order to further improve the power supply system reliability of low voltage high current vehicle generator, hybrid excitation is used and the permanent magnets are added between the main magnetic poles body and pole shoes. Aiming at reply the problem of limited installation space, the asymmetric pole structure, non-uniform commutating pole, single wave windings playing a role of the pressure line and oblique brush etc are investigated for improving commutation. This paper researched on the distribution of the flux line, the waveform of the air gap magnetic field, and analysis inner magnetic field at the loading by hybrid excitation and no loading by permanent magnet excitation alone respectively with the method of finite element. The results reveal that the magnetic field established by several excitation systems is still symmetric and uniform although the asymmetric structure, so it ensures the provision of suitable medium space for mechanical and electrical energy conversion. By comparing the permanent magnets excitation alone and hybrid excitation in a generator magnetic field distribution and air gap magnetic field waveform, the permanent magnet excitation and electricity excitation realized the superposition of magnetic field, and common establish main generator magnetic field. Hybrid excitation also reduces the current density of excitation coils and improves the heat dissipating performance compared with electrically excited alone. Through the performance analysis of the hybrid excitation, the output voltage waveform is very stable. The curve of auxiliary excitation current along with velocity variation provide important basis for excitation control devices and the development of control algorithm. It will help to improve the stability, reliability and security of the generator, the results can provide key technical support to the development of low-voltage high-current hybrid excitation vehicle generator.

The Magnetic Field

In the linear and planar motors, the 1D Halbach magnet array is extensively used. The sinusoidal property of the magnetic field deteriorates by analyzing the magnetic field at a small air gap. Therefore, a new 1D Halbach magnet array is proposed, in which the permanent magnet with a curved surface is applied. Based on the superposition of principle and Fourier series, the magnetic flux density distribution is derived. The optimized curved surface is obtained and fitted by a polynomial. The sinusoidal magnetic field is verified by comparing it with the magnetic flux density of the finite element model. Through the analysis of different dimensions of the permanent magnet array, the optimization result has good applicability. The force ripple can be significantly reduced by the new magnet array. The effect on the mass and air gap is investigated compared with a conventional magnet array with rectangular permanent magnets. In conclusion, the new magnet array design has the scalability to be extended to various sizes of motor and is especially suitable for small air gap applications.

Intermediate Variables

The torque ripple is affected by both the stator and the rotor magnetic field harmonics. In synchronous reluctance motors (SynRM), there are only rotor permeance harmonics existing on the rotor side for the absence of the rotor windings. Since the asymmetric rotor flux barriers are widely applied in the SynRM rotor, it is difficult to calculate the rotor permeance accurately by the analytical method. In this article, the effects of the rotor permeance harmonics on the air-gap magnetic field are studied by a virtual permanent magnet harmonic machine (VPMHM), which is a finite-element (FE) based magnetostatic analysis model. The air-gap flux density harmonics produced by the SynRM rotor are extracted from the VPMHM model and used as the intermediate variables for the torque ripple optimization. The proposed method does not need to solve the transient process of motor motion. Hence, the time of the optimization process can be significantly shortened. Finally, a full electric cycle is simulated by dynamic FE simulation, and the torque ripple is proved to be effectively reduced.
