Abstract

This paper proposes a simple analytical machine sizing process for a three-phase surface mounted permanent magnet synchronous machines appropriate for both system level analysis and preliminary machine design. For system-level analysis, the proposed method can generate candidate machine models, be used to check if proposed performance values for a machine in a system level design problem are feasible or be integrated into a system-level optimization considering power electronics, passives, and machine. In machine design, the advantage of analytical process is it quickly generates candidate designs. These designs can be further refined using more computational intensive methods such as FEA, CFD, and machine design software.
