This paper presents a design and characteristics analysis of interior permanent magnet (IPM) type BLDC motor for electric vehicle. In order to design of IPM type BLDC motor, surface mounted permanent magnet(SPM) type BLDC motor is used as the initial design model. According to the size of permanent magnet, the steady state characteristics is analysized by equivalent magnetic circuit method. The characteristics analysis results of the designed motor is compared with the experimental results.

Based on the requirement of high power and efficiency in automobile systems, this paper describes an investigation for the optimum design of a permanent magnet reluctance motor(PRM), and then the characteristics of this kind of motor is compared with that of a interior permanent magnet(IPM) motor. The IPM of 4-pole with 6-slot is redesigned into a PRM, which has the same stator and different rotor structure with IPM. Through finite element analysis(FEA) and equivalent circuit method, the PRM has higher salient ratio, higher efficiency at high speed, and lower iron loss compared with IPM.

In recent years, permanent magnets such as IPM (Interior Permanent Magnet) motors or SPM (Surface Permanent Magnet) motors that can obtain high efficiency and power density by inserting rare earth permanent magnets into the rotor are used. Research on the used electric motor is being actively conducted. Since it uses a permanent magnet, it has the advantage of high efficiency and high power density compared to reluctance motors and induction motors, but by inserting a permanent magnet into the rotor, it operates at high speeds and decreases reliability due to demagnetization of the permanent magnets, and increases the cost of rare earth metals. In this paper, in accordance with the development of future technology that can replace rare-earth permanent magnet motors and technological preoccupation of rare-earth reduction type motors and de-rare-earth motors, switched reluctance motors that do not require permanent magnets (Switched Reluvtance Motors) Motor, SRM) to drive driving control. Using the 3-phase SRM library provided by the PSIM simulation program, we will study the driving and control system modeling of SRM using the rotor position information sensor.

Recently, Interior Permanent Magnet Machine(IPM) is widely used for traction motor in the high speed train. Higher efficiency and power density are the superb performance of IPM. Due to the high power density, however, it has lots of heat source which are originated from copper losses and core losses. These heat source can cause the permanent demagnetization in magnet and the loss of torque and power. To prevent the undesirable loss in the traction motor, the accurate loss calculation and the thermal analysis should be preceded. Especially, the end-winding area and permanent magnet area should be examined correctly. In this paper, the electromagnetic fields were examined by finite element method to analyze the electromagnetic properties of IPM and thermal analysis are carried out with pre-calculated losses. To validate the analysis result, the experiment set with forced air cooling system is manufactured.

This paper proposes a novel asymmetrical interior permanent magnet (IPM) brushless DC (BLDC) motor structure, which utilizes half-type permanent magnet (PM) configuration and has asymmetrical side gaps (slot next to the PMs) for reducing torque ripples. This structure uses 24% less volume of PMs than conventional IPM BLDC motor with a full set of magnets. The characteristics of the proposed motor are compared with three other half-type IPM BLDC motors through finite elements method (FEM) analysis, and the usefulness of the proposed motor was verified through experimental evaluation on prototypes of the conventional motor and proposed motor under various torque load conditions. This research obtained a high-performance IPM BLDC motor while decreasing manufacturing cost at the same time.

This paper describes an indirect sensing method for the rotor flux position of interior permanent magnet (IPM) brushless DC motors. The phase inductances of an IPM motor vary appreciably according to the rotor position. The waveform characteristics of the terminal voltage of IPM brushless DC motors is analysed and a simple and practical method for indirect sensing of the rotor position is proposed. A compact and economical sensorless drive is implemented and tested using a 87c196mc 16-bit one-chip microprocessor. The experimental results show the validity of the proposed method. The drive is applied to drive a compressor of air-conditioner and works well from 1,200 to 6,600 [rpm].

The structure of interior permanent magnet type brushless DC motor (IPM type BLDC motor) has high saliency ratios that produce additional reluctance torque. But this structure has a significant cogging torque that may cause acoustic noise and vibration. In this paper describes an optimization of flux barrier in order to reduce cogging torque and torque ripple in IPM type BLDC motor using the Taguchi methods. The optimal design consider- ed noises such as manufacturing tolerances of permanent magnet size. So, optimal design ensures that torque performance is insensitive to noise.

By reason of variation magnetic field, cogging torque is generated. Cogging torque of IPM is bigger than other type permanent magnet motor. So, this paper presents a Optimizeing notch to reduce cogging torque of interior type permanent magnet(: IPM) motor. Through Fourier formulation of magnetic field on rotor, we found position of notch and manufactured armature that is designed by optimizing analysis. The validity of the proposed design is confirmed with experiments.

In this paper, we propose a method for suppressing shaft voltage by modifying the shape of the rotor and the permanent magnets in interior permanent magnet-type-high-voltage motors. Shaft voltage, which is induced by parasitic components and the leakage flux in motor-driven systems, adversely affects their bearings. In order to minimize shaft voltage, we designed a magnet rearrangement and rotor re-structuring of the motor. The shaft voltage suppression effect of the designed model was confirmed experimentally and by comparative finite element analysis.

This paper presents the torque ripple and vibration characteristic of interior type permanent magnet (IPM) motor according to rotor design. In the design methods, the optimal notchs are put on the rotor pole face, which have an effect on variation of permanent magnet (PM) shape or residual flux density of PM. Through the space harmonics field analysis, the positions of notch are found and the optimal shapes of notch are decided by using Finite Element Method (FEM). The validity of the proposed method is confirmed with experiments. Therefore, the vibration, starting current and efficiency of IPM is measured by experiment.
