Slots Geometry Influence on the Air Gap Magnetic Field Distribution
Authors: ,
Abstract: Prediction and performance analysis of electrical machines depend mainly on the accuracy in the evaluation of the magnetic field linking the different parts of the machine. This paper presents the influence of the slots geometry on permanent magnet synchronous machine (PMSM) magnetic field distribution using finite element method (FEM), where we change the slots structure in order to improve the air gap magnetic field distribution .The accuracy of the developed model is verified by comparing its results with those obtained from experimental measurements.
