Innovative design of an air cooled ferrite permanent magnet assisted synchronous reluctance machine for automotive traction application

This paper presents the innovative design of an air cooled permanent magnet assisted synchronous reluctance machine (PMaSyRM) for automotive traction application. Key design features include low cost ferrite magnets in an optimized rotor geometry with high saliency ratio, low weight and sufficient mechanical strength as well as a tailored hairpin stator winding in order to meet the demands of an A-segment battery electric vehicle (BEV). Effective torque ripple reduction techniques are analyzed and a suitable combination is chosen to keep additional manufacturing measures as low as possible. Although the ferrite magnets exhibit low remanence, it is shown that their contribution to the electrical machine's performance is essential in the field weakening region. Efficiency optimized torque-speed-characteristics are identified, including additional losses of the inverter, showing an overall system efficiency of more than 94 %. Lastly, the results of no load measurements of a prototype are compared to the FEM simulation results, indicating the proposed design of a PMaSyRM as a cost-effective alternative to state-of-the-art permanent magnet synchronous machines (PMSM) for vehicle traction purposes.
