Parametric Design and Simulation of Electrically-Excited Synchronous Machines

Parametric Design and Simulation of Electrically-Excited Synchronous Machines

Permanent magnet synchronous machines are a standard in the automotive sector. In the last years, the variable price of the rare-earth at the base of strong PM push the research on alternative solutions without rare-earth based permanent magnets. One of the solutions is the Electrical Excited Synchronous Machine (EESM), generally adopted as generator for grid applications and now re-discovered as competitive solution for rare-earth-free traction applications. The aim of the thesis is to include this kind of motor in SyR-e (https://github.com/SyR-e/syre_public) the open-source design and simulation framework developed in Matlab from PEIC members. At the moment, SyR-e covers other types of electric motor, from Synchronous reluctance motor to interior and surfacemounted permanent magnet motors and induction motor.
