Iron Loss Modelling of Electrical Traction Motors for Improved Prediction of Higher Harmonic Losses

Iron Loss Modelling of Electrical Traction Motors for Improved Prediction of Higher Harmonic Losses

A Finite Element (FE) modelling approach is presented to account for the core losses in electrical machines that are generated by higher harmonic frequencies, for example those caused by Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) switching or by space harmonics due to the machine geometry. The model builds furthe...
