Introduction TLN

Mainly focus here on permanent magnet synchronous

motor(PMSM).
Higher cost in comparison with induction motor.
But they have higher efficiency, high power density, high dynamic
response and high power factor.

Rotor Structure of PMSMs TLN

There are two types of PMSMs according to the direction of magnetic

flux produced from the permanents
1) Radial-flux type (we will continue with this type which is more commonly used in many applications )
2) Axial-flux type

Radial-flux Type PMSM TLN

• There are two types of PMSM based on the position of the

permanent magnets as
1) Surface-mounted permanent magnet synchronous motor (SPMSM) ()
2) Interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) ()

• As a PMSM has no rotor circuit, we only need to consider the stator
voltage equations as
