Analysis of magnetic field regulation characteristics of novel rare earth variable flux permanent magnet synchronous motor for electric vehicles

The novel rare earth variable flux permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) for electric vehicles is proposed. The structure and magnetic field regulation characteristics are analyzed, the variation of magnetic density, no-load back electromagnetic force and output torque with speed was studied through finite element simulation. The weak magnetic field expansion speed performance of the novel PMSM has been verified through experimental equipment. The adjustable electromagnetic field with running speed on the rare earth PMSM increases the high-speed operation range of vehicle.
