PurposeIn the optimisation of electrical drives, the required degree of detail in the simulation increases constantly. Especially, the industrial demand on multi‐objective optimisation craves for highly efficient models. The purpose of this paper is to propose a hybrid model for the computation of the air‐gap field of a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) combining analytic and numeric methods.Design/methodology/approachThe classic conformal mapping (CM) approach is improved by the numeric approximation of the required ansatz‐functions. This approach allows to consider the non‐linear permeability of the applied materials and complex geometries. The non‐linear permeance‐function is described by a one‐dimensional wave varying in time and space.FindingsThe permeance‐function has to be derived for different load cases at the actual stage.Research limitations/implicationsA physical motivated modelling allowing for an appropriate interpolation between different load cases is planned in further research.Practical implicationsThe proposed approach is applied to a surface mounted PMSM. It is validated by means of a non‐linear finite element analysis.Originality/valueThe hybrid model offers to consider rotors with buried magnets using the CM approach. It is possible to either use analytic or numeric modelling of rotor ansatz‐function, stator current ansatz‐function and permeance‐function with the proposed approach. Non‐linear permeability of iron is modelled by means of a wave representation of the permeance‐function. This can significantly reduce the computational cost in the design and optimisation stage of electrical machines. |
