Abstract :
The paper presents a method to determine hysteresis losses in synchronous permanent magnet (PM) motors. The method comprises four steps: (1) experimental determination of the B-H loop, (2) analytical modeling of the B-H loop by applying different models, (3) analytical modeling of the hysteresis losses, and (4) determination of the hysteresis losses in a synchronous PM motor, and results´ verification using an experiment and an FEM software
