Analysis of Temperature Rise in High-Speed Permanent Magnet Synchronous Traction Motors by Coupling the Equivalent Thermal Circuit Method and Computational Fluid Dynamics

To solve the problem of temperature rise caused by the high power density of high-speed permanent magnet synchronous traction motors,the temperature rise of various components in the motor is analyzed by coupling the equivalent thermal circuit method and computational fluid dynamics.Also,a cooling strategy is proposed to solve the problem of temperature rise,which is expected to prolong the service life of these devices.First,the theoretical bases of the approaches used to study heat transfer and fluid mechanics are discussed,then the fluid flow for the considered motor is analyzed,and the equivalent thermal circuit method is introduced for the calculation of the temperature rise.Finally,the stator,rotor loss,motor temperature rise,and the proposed cooling method are also explored through experiments.According to the results,the stator temperature at 50,000 r/min and 60,000 r/min at no-load operation is 68℃ and 76℃,respectively.By monitoring the temperature of the air outlets inside and outside the motor at different speeds,it is also found that the motor reaches a stable temperature rise after 65 min of operation.Coupling of the thermal circuit method and computational fluid dynamics is a strategy that can provide the average temperature rise of each component and can also comprehensively calculate the temperature of each local point.We conclude that a hybrid cooling strategy based on axial air cooling of the inner air duct of the motor and water cooling of the stator can meet the design requirements for the ventilation and cooling of this type of motors.

Influence of Magnet Shape on the Cogging Torque of a Surface-mounted Permanent Magnet Motor

The influence of bread-loaf shaped magnet poles under parallel magnetization on the cogging torque of surface-mounted permanent magnet(SPM)motors is studied.For the SPM motors having magnetic poles with eccentricity and sine harmonic compensation,the electromagnetic performances of integer and fractional slot motors are compared.It is found that the cogging torque and torque ripple of the integer and fractional slot motors can be reduced with the same eccentric magnet pole.The cogging torque and torque ripple of a fractional slot motor can be decreased by sine harmonic compensation,however,the same sine harmonic compensation has a small influence in integer slot motors.By varying the magnetic poles,the contribution of the field harmonics(k=(2n+1)p),which are a direct result of magnet magnetization,to the cogging torque also changes.The electromagnetic performance of a 3 kW prototype is tested,and it is found that the experimental results validate the theoretical investigation.

A sensorless efficiency test system for a high-speed permanent magnet synchronous motor

We present a sensorless efficiency test system with energy recovery for a high-speed permanent magnet synchronous motor(PMSM). In the system, two identical high-speed PMSMs are used as the motor under test(MUT)and the load machine(LM),respectively.A new sensorless vector control(VC) method based on a hypothetical reference frame is presented to control both the MUT and the LM.Also,a regenerating unit is used to implement energy circulation to save energy.Experiments were carried out on a prototype, with a digital controller based on the TMS320 F28335, to verify the adequacy of the sensorless VC method.As a result,the efficiency test system achieves the load test at the speed of 21000 r/min without any reduction equipment. During the test, the energy regenerated by the LM could be fed back to the MUT by the regenerating unit, and 81.31% electrical power was saved.In addition, with the proposed sensorless VC method,both the MUT and the LM can work at i_d = 0 without a position sensor.
