Optimization of 6Slots-7Poles 12Slots-14Poles flux-switching permanent magnet machines for plug-in HEV

摘要

Plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) is independent of the internal combustion engine but acts as the auxiliary unit mostly on the electric drive system. Main while, the Flux-switching permanent magnet machine (FSPMM) has been studied in terms of structure with its operation principle been analyzed. To achieve a higher torque with a corresponding high power density and lower torque ripple, FSPMM with 6Slots-7Poles and 12Slots-14Poles, according investigations, are optimized based on their objective functions. Moreover, it analyzes several typical performance curves, such as cogging torque, flux linkage and back-EMF. Finally, the torque and corresponding power, efficiency and rotor mechanical strength analysis of optimized designed are obtained. The results indicate that FSPMM is a viable candidate for PHEV and also has good mechanical robustness with strong flux-weakening ability.
