• comparison faults

• surface permanent-magnet (SPM) motors
• winding function theory (WFT)

In this paper, the characteristics of brushless dc (BLDC) motors were compared and analyzed according to the types and control methods under the inter-turn fault (ITF) condition. The shorted windings produced by the ITF were modeled by the winding function theory (WFT) based on the distributed constant circuit method. We also introduced the inductance calculated by the WFT to the voltage equation and analyzed the effect of the ITF using the characteristics of the input and output parameters. The increase rate of torque ripple, increase rate of input current, and the circulating current of the surface permanent-magnet (PM) and interior PM motors under healthy and ITF conditions were compared to determine which motor type is more efficient in preventing the ITF. We also analyzed the fault characteristics by applying the advanced angle control. In this paper, the analysis results are validated by the finite-element method and experiments.
