Abstract :
An approach for obtaining lumped synchronous and dynamic parameters of a permanent magnet (PM) motor is developed based on finite element solutions. The availability of these accurate parameters has made it possible to provide the complete analysis of synchronous performance and starting performance at the lowest computational effort. In order to cope with the voltage source supply corresponding finite element formulae are derived with complete elimination of the iterative process for starting current
