Abstract
In this article, a new analytical model for predicting the magnetic field of the U-shaped interior permanent magnet motor (IPMM) is proposed. In the polar coordinates, rectangular permanent magnets are equivalent to the combination of consistent fan-shaped subdomains, and after that, the Laplace or Poisson equation of each solution domain can be obtained. Furthermore, based on the harmonic modeling (HM) technique, the saturation characteristics of the magnetic bridge are accurately considered, and then its magnetic field distribution (MFD) and electromagnetic performances (EPs) can be obtained. The approach proposed in this article includes but is not limited to U-shaped IPMMs, and it can also be applied to spoke-type or V-shaped IPMMs with a minor modification.
