Abstract :
This paper describes the calculation of torque in a brushless permanent-magnet line-start AC motor by means of the flux-MMF diagram in combination with the finite-element method. Results are compared with measured flux-MMF diagrams, with shaft torque measurements, and with torque calculated using the classical phasor diagram.
