Wide Speed Range Operation of Concentrated Winding Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machines
DownloadFall 2016
The design, simulation and experimental evaluation of an Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (IPMSM) are investigated. The motor is designed to be capable of operation from either a concentrated single inverter supply or in an “Open-Winding” configuration using two converters. In order to...
