Abstract :
This model was developed in response to the demand for fast, simple, and reasonably accurate methods for modelling heavily saturated synchronous machines. This paper outlines the development and performance of a new air gap flux density model for saturated salient pole synchronous machines. The model has four main components and its performance is demonstrated by comparing its computed flux density distribution and rotor torque with measured results for static conditions. The model gives reasonable results considering its simplicity
