Hybrid Analytical Model for AC Copper Loss Computation of Hairpin Winding

This article proposes a hybrid analytical model (HAM) for predicting ac copper losses in hairpin windings. The HAM combines the nonlinear semi-analytical model (SAM) and the 1-D ac copper loss computation model to solve the inaccurate boundary solutions of the 1-D ac copper loss computation model when magnetic saturation occurs in the stator...

Design of a Highly Efficient 20 kW Inductive Power Transfer System with Improved Misalignment Performance

Due to the urgent desire for a fast, convenient, and efficient battery charging technology for electric vehicle (EV) users, extensive research has been conducted into the design of high-power inductive power transfer (IPT) systems. However, there are few studies that formulate the design as a multiobjective optimization (MOO) research...

Extending Winding Function Theory to Incorporate Secondary Effects in the Design of Induction Machines and Drives

High-performance electric drive applications necessitate a high fidelity model to predict the terminal characteristics of machines in the design stage to fulfill a system-level evaluation together with the converters. This article interprets winding function theory (WFT) from the field perspective and incorporates secondary effects, such as...

Variation Regularity and Measurement of Zero-Sequence Inductance of Fractional Slot Concentrated Winding PMSMs

The zero-sequence inductance is a vital parameter for the performance analysis of permanent magnet machines, especially under faulty conditions or in open-winding machines. This paper focuses on the zero-sequence inductance calculation of fractional slot concentrated winding permanent magnet synchronous machines (FSCW-PMSMs), and reveals the...
