Abstract
In order to optimize the electromagnetic performance of a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) during operation, this paper takes the size of the stator slot structure of the motor as the optimization variable and the peak cogging torque and no-load back electromotive force (EMF) amplitude of the motor as the optimization objectives. A multi-objective optimization method based on the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is adopted to obtain a structural parameter combination that minimizes the peak cogging torque and no-load back EMF amplitude while meeting the reasonable range requirements of magnetic flux density amplitude. The optimized motor structure design prototype is experimentally verified. The results show that through multi-objective optimization based on the PSO algorithm, the electromagnetic performance of the motor has been improved, with a reduction of 36.33% in peak cogging torque and 2.65% in peak no-load back EMF, indicating a reasonable magnetic flux density amplitude. The experimental results of the optimized prototype show that the difference between the theoretical simulation values and the experimental values is within a reasonable range, which verifies the effectiveness of the multi-objective optimization method.
