Abstract: The interest in electromechanical actuators (EMA) has been growing because of the development of next generation aircraft, based on the More Electric design. Electromechanical actuators have been gaining increased acceptance as they are becoming more and more safety-critical actuation devices: for prognostics and health management purposes of EMA, reliable and representative simulation models are needed in order to identify failures. This paper presents a multi domain model of EMA and it focuses on the numerical modelling of the Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM), also kwon as Sinusoidal Brushless Motor. The choice of the multi domain simulation is necessary to improve the simplifying hypotheses that are typically considered in numerical models and that are mostly used for prognostic analyses of electromechanical actuators.
