Investigation on PMSM for electric vehicle applications using co-simulation of MATLAB and magnet software

Abstract

Transportation plays an important role in all our day to day life. Advancements in technology have uplifted the transportation system into the next level by the introduction of E-Vehicle. E-vehicles are the replacement of gasoline vehicles which are the major reason for depletion of ozone layer. The main component of the E-vehicle is the motor which basically decides the efficiency of the vehicles. The design of the machine has a great impact on the efficiency and as well as on the engines output. Due to the poor analysis of electromagnetic properties of the motor, undesired fluctuations and pulsations would occur causing harmonics to take place thereby there is a huge increase in iron loss. This will also affect the control over the vehicle at low speed. A reasonable method to avoid such issues is to introduce an additional step of analyzing the electromagnetic properties before prototyping the machine. Analysis of the machine is done on the perspective with the integration of the motor and the other components. A new design phase where multi-domain analysis defines these phenomena will assist in the task of achieving an optimal design. A specific simulation tool for each domain is needed for analysis of the entire sys-tem. The co-simulation is carried out on a 10-pole, 12-slot interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) in this paper to do finite element analysis in order to achieve the necessary efficiency.

A new approach to design line start permanent magnet synchronous motors

“…Furthermore, permanent magnet synchronous motors are increasingly used in traction vehicles as electric drives in high-speed railways [11], [12]. The advantages of Int J Elec & Comp Eng ISSN: 2088-8708  the motors with permanent magnets have also been noticed by manufacturers of electric and hybrid cars, which contributed to the development of zero-emission vehicles [13]- [16].…”

“…For this purpose, appropriate computer-aided design (CAD) computer programs can be used. The most popular of them in the described field are flux and Ansys Maxwell [4], [13], [18], [26].…”

Analysis of Mechanical-Hydraulic Cooperative Response of Hydraulic Support Under Roof Rotary Impact

“…In addition, the improvement in the level of computer application has promoted the progress of science and technology, making more and more industrial software serve in the development and research process of construction machinery. References [22], [23], [24], [25], [26], and [27] show that software in different fields performs co-simulation to complete product development and design. Furthermore, the co-simulation results are more accurate than single simulation results, and the obtained data results are closer to the real situation.…”
