Abstract

This paper reports the development of an analysis method in a synchronous reluctance motor (SynRM) using the finite element method (FEM) coupled with the electromagnetic field of the Preisach model, which represents an additional thermal source due to hysteresis loss and a thermal field. This study focused on thermal analysis relative to hysteresis and copper losses in a SynRM.

 

Keywords: copper loss; finite element method (FEM); hysteresis loss; preisach model; synchronous reluctance motor (SynRM); thermal analysis
