摘要

The core loss is of great significance in the machine designing and optimization. In the paper, an analytical method for calculating the flux density of surface-mounted permanent magnet synchronous machine is first presented based on the equivalent magnetic circuit and conformal mapping method. The model takes into account the slotting effect and stator saturation. Subsequently, the core loss was calculated by improved Bertotti's formula in terms of the analytical model of flux density. Finally, experiment and finite element analysis (FEA) are used to validate the accuracy of the proposed analytical method for core loss. It shows that the analytical results for core loss can keep excellent agreement with the experimental results and FEA results. Therefore, the analytical model provides a great potential to the machine designing and optimization.
