Modern permanent magnet (PM) synchronous brushless machines often have magnetic circuits in which the patterns of saturation are complex and highly variable with the position of the rotor. The classical phasor diagram theory of operation relies on the assumption of sinusoidal variation of flux-linkage with rotor position, and neglects the non-linear effects that arise in different operating states. The finite element method is a useful tool for detailed magnetic analysis, but it is important to verify simulation results by direct measurement of the magnetic characteristics of the motor, in terms of “magnetisation curves” of current and flux-linkage. This paper presents results from finite element simulations to determine the magnetisation in a split-phase interior permanent magnet (IPM) motor. Investigation has been made to determine the effects of the rotor geometry on the synchronous reactances and airgap flux distribution. Comparisons are made with a second IPM motor with a different rotor configuration.

In order to solve the problem that no-load magnetic flux leakage coefficient is not accurate when it is calculated by the method of magnetic circuit, a model of interior permanent magnet(IPM) generator with 36 slots for vehicle was built through the finite element method of the ANSYS, and then a means of calculating the IPM generator’s magnetic flux was put forward after analyzing the magnetic flux leakage conditions of different rotor structures under the circumstance of not changing stator structure. The ralationships among the pairs of poles, the magnet width, the thickness of non-magnetic sleeve, the length of air-gap and the magnetic flux leakage coefficient were obtained, and they provided forceful guidance for the structural design of IPM generator.

This paper presents a comparison of 30/8 and 12/8 AC permanent magnet motors with distributed (DW) and concentrated winding (CW) designed for electric vehicle traction. Both prototypes are based on an interior permanent magnet (IPM) motor topology and contain V-shape magnets. The radial flux AC IPM motors were designed for an 80 kW propulsion system to achieve 125 N·m. Finite element models (FEM) used to design the geometry of IPM motors and the required useful parameters of electric motors are widely investigated. The accuracy of finite element models is verified and validated on the basis of test data. Numerical simulations of healthy and faulty operation states, and studies of winding faults based on the FEM offer a deeper understanding of the associated phenomena. Therefore, in this paper, a short-circuit fault in a stator winding was simulated to investigate the transient currents under an external load collapse, for all winding phases. These simulations were used to define other important machine parameters to improve mechanical reliability of the motors and to assess the potential risk of permanent magnet (PM) demagnetization. Furthermore, the analysis of local magnetic forces affecting the PMs in the rotor and their possible displacement in a short-circuit situation were performed, also taking into account the centrifugal force. Lastly, it is demonstrated that the choice of winding configuration has a significant impact on the uncontrolled displacement of magnets in the rotor.

Basic Statements of Research and Magnetic Field of Axial Excitation Inductor GeneratorIn this work the main features of axial excitation inductor generators are described. Mathematical simulation of a magnetic field is realized by using the finite element method. The objective of this work is to elucidate how single elements shape, geometric dimensions and magnetic saturation of magnetic system affect the main characteristics of the field (magnetic induction, magnetic flux linkage). The main directions of a magnetic system optimization are specified.
