Electrical machines are the hearts of many appliances, industrial equipment and systems. In the context of global sustainability, they must fulfill various requirements, not only physically and technologically but also environmentally. Therefore, their design optimization process becomes more and more complex as more engineering disciplines/domains and constraints are involved, such as electromagnetics, structural mechanics and heat transfer. This paper aims to present a review of the design optimization methods for electrical machines, including design analysis methods and models, optimization models, algorithms and methods/strategies. Several efficient optimization methods/strategies are highlighted with comments, including surrogate-model based and multi-level optimization methods. In addition, two promising and challenging topics in both academic and industrial communities are discussed, and two novel optimization methods are introduced for advanced design optimization of electrical machines. First, a system-level design optimization method is introduced for the development of advanced electric drive systems. Second, a robust design optimization method based on the design for six-sigma technique is introduced for high-quality manufacturing of electrical machines in production. Meanwhile, a proposal is presented for the development of a robust design optimization service based on industrial big data and cloud computing services. Finally, five future directions are proposed, including smart design optimization method for future intelligent design and production of electrical machines.

Abstract:The Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS) plays an inevitable role across the world. In particular, the attention for Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generators (PMSGs) connected with wind farm is popular. This paper deals with the literature review that describes the recent advances, progresses and innovatory trends on PMSGs for WECS. Comparison between geared and direct-driven conversion systems and the classification of electrical machines used in WECS are discussed. A detailed analysis on the design aspects considering various topologies of PMSGs are encompassed in the literature. The PMSG design and optimization problems are solved by field computation techniques and optimized by using Soft Computing (SC) techniques .The threedimensional, finite element software platform for the analysis and design of PMSGs is discussed. This paper also deals with the interdisciplinary modeling, analysis, and optimization of PMSG using Finite Element Analysis (FEM) and SC techniques. Finally, PMSGs are reviewed and compared for further exploration.

“…In fact, high efficiency is not only a matter of energy saving, but it relates to long-term reliability as well. From the industrial viewpoint, in fact, a high energy efficiency value implies slow materials ageing [19] and should be always pursued compatibly with cooling fluid availability constraints.…”

“…In the development of high-speed electric machines conceived for highly demanding requirements, design optimization clearly plays a key role [10], [12], [19]. In order for the optimization to be feasible in terms of time and computation resources, however, it is imperative to limit the range of design variables and options to be explored in it.…”

The ongoing gas industry expansion calls for quick and strong advances in turbomachinery-coupled highspeed electric motors. Very high efficiency, dynamic performance and reliability are among the main requirements to be met at competitive costs by electric machine suppliers. This paper reports on an industrial R&D project aimed at finding the best compromise between performance targets and production cost reduction. The development of a 640-kW 10.000-rpm PM motor prototype with slotless stator and Halbach-array magnetically-levitated PM rotor is discussed, including in particular the basic technology selection and design optimization processes. In a companion paper (Part II), prototype manufacturing and testing will be reported to assess the technology and design solutions adopted
