Abstract
- The effects of temperature-dependent material properties, including those of silicon steel and permanent magnet (PM) materials, on the design process of inverter-fed PM motors are investigated in this paper. The magnetization curves of these materials are measured experimentally at different temperatures and are imported into a finite-element package. Then, a statistical study of an integrated motor-drive system consisting of an interior PM motor connected to a space vector modulated inverter is performed by assigning four different temperatures and building a design space of various objectives including the integrated system efficiency, speed limits, motor startup quality, torque ripple, total harmonic distortion, and power factor as the geometrical dimensions are varied. The results reveal that incorporating the realistic material properties into the design process is essential. Moreover, different motor-drive performances have totally different variation rates as the material properties are changed. Finally, a set of optimal designs at different temperatures is proposed to show the effect of changing material properties. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
