Abstract :
Soft magnetic composites (SMC) is a magnetic material which offers the potential for innovative machine geometries and lower cost manufacturing. This paper examines the finite-element analysis and performance prediction of a segmented brushless permanent magnet machine based on SMC. Experimental results including the back-EMF waveform, iron loss and performance characteristics are used to validate the simulation results.
