Abstract

Hybrid electrical vehicles (HEV), which combine the drive power of an internal combustion engine and that of one or several electrical machines (EM), are finding, due to an increasing ecological awareness, a better market acceptance nowadays. Due to the limited space available in drive trains, PM-motors, which offer high power densities, are prime candidates for such applications. This paper presents an automated design process for PMSM, which reduces the motor-development time and allows considering many design variations.
