The traditional bearingless synchronous reluctance motor (BSynRM) with salient pole rotor has some drawbacks such as high suspension force ripple, low torque density and low power factor. To overcome the above shortcomings, the permanent-magnet-assisted bearingless synchronous reluctance motor (PMa-BSynRM) is proposed. In this paper, two types of PMa-BSynRM rotors with the same number of permanent magnets but different magnetic barrier structures are designed. A traditional BSynRM with a salient pole rotor is introduced, and the electromagnetic and vibration characteristics of the three BSynRM are analyzed and compared. Firstly, the rotor structures of the two PMa-BSynRMs are designed, and the operation principle of the BSynRM is introduced. Secondly, electromagnetic characteristics of the three motors are analyzed and compared in detail using FEA software. Thirdly, the vibration analysis of the three motors is carried out. Finally, the experimental prototype platforms are built. The FEA and experimental results verify that the designed PMa-BSynRM can improve the power factor and torque density of traditional BSynRMs, and the most superior BSynRM among the three is identified.

Considering the negative vertical dynamics effect of switched reluctance motor on an in-wheel motor driving system, this article presents a modeling and suppression method for unbalanced radial force of the in-wheel motor driving system. To tease out the coupling relationship within the in-wheel motor driving system, this investigation, respectively, explores the principle of unbalanced radial force and the coupling relationship between rotor eccentricity and road excitation based on the suspension response model with unbalanced radial force under road excitation. The switched reluctance motor nonlinear analytical model was fitted by the Fourier series, and its radial electromagnetic force was modeled and analyzed by the Maxwell stress tensor method. To mitigate the influence of radial electromagnetic force fluctuation and unbalanced radial force amplitude value under eccentricity condition on the in-wheel motor driving system, the elitist non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm was adopted to improve radial electromagnetic force fluctuation and unbalanced radial force amplitude value of the switched reluctance motor. The simulation results show that the proposed optimization method can suppress the radial electromagnetic force fluctuation and unbalanced radial force amplitude value, and the negative effect of vertical dynamics of the in-wheel motor driving system is conspicuously mitigated.

The rare-earth (RE) permanent magnets (PM) have been increasingly adopted in traction motor application. However, the RE PM is expensive, less abundant, and has cost uncertainties due to limited market suppliers. This paper presents a new design of a RE-free five-phase ferrite permanent magnet-assisted synchronous reluctance motor (Fe-PMaSynRM) with the external rotor architecture with a high saliency ratio. In such architecture, the low magnetic coercivity and demagnetization risk of the ferrite PM is the challenge. This limits the number of flux barriers, saliency ratio, and reluctance torque. A precise analytical design procedure of rotor and stator configuration is presented with differential evolution numerical optimizations by utilizing a lumped parameter model. A 3.7 kW prototype is fabricated to validate the proposed idea.
