Abstract

Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machines (PMSMs) are widely adopted in several fields, including More Electric Aircraft applications, due to their enhanced performance. In this paper a comparison between two types of PMSMs, used to drive an oil pump for aircraft applications, is presented. A fast automatic tool for the analytical pre-design is proposed, in order to obtain a reasonable sizing of the machine. Then, finite element analysis is carried out so to accurately evaluate and compare the obtained machines. In particular, the comparison is focused on 4 key performance indexes: mean torque, torque ripple, losses and efficiency. Finally, starting from the output of the analytical pre-design, an optimization procedure based on genetic algorithms is performed.
