Abstract :
This paper presents the design, analysis and PWM vector control of a hybrid permanent magnet hysteresis synchronous motor with a view to improve the performances of the motors for electric vehicle application. This hybrid design combines the advantageous performance features of both the conventional hysteresis motors and the permanent magnet motors. A PWM vector control simulation and experimental results for the motor drives are given. A laboratory prototype hybrid hysteresis permanent magnet motor was built. Test results validate the superior performances of the new motor
