Abstract

The paper presents an analysis of performances for studied electrical machine design for small power automotive application. The electrical machine under study in this paper is flux switching permanent magnet synchronous machine. After the computation of the machine main dimensions using an analytical algorithm, a Hooke-Jeeves optimization procedure was implemented in order to obtain the optimal geometry of the flux switching machine. The electromagnetic field and static performances are studied, based on 2D Finite Element analysis (2D-FEA).
