Electronics. Nuclear Engineering Today's industrial trend requires designers to build electric machines with shorter design time and to have better performance.

In order to reduce the repetitive and redundancy works, the optimization tool is deployed to solve this problem. Three multi-objective optimizations based on Analytical Sub-Domain (ASD) and Differential Evolution Algorithm (DEA), Analytical Sub-Domain (ASD) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), Analytical Sub-Domain (ASD) and Genetic Algorithm (GA), for fractionalslot Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machines (PMSM) are formulated, computed and optimized. Then, the optimized fractional-slot Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machine (PMSM) performance is validated using the 2-D Finite Element Method (FEM). Two three-phase fractional-slot PMSM models are studied i.e. 6-slot/4-pole and 15-slot/10-pole in which the magnet thickness, air gap length, magnet arc to pole-pitch ratio, slot opening, and stator inner radius are the selected machine parameters to be optimized. The objective functions of the optimization model are: to have the lowest cogging torque, to have the lowest total harmonics distortion of phase back-emf, to have the highest output torque, and to have the highest efficiency. From the results obtained, the Analytical Sub-Domain Differential Evolution Algorithm (ASDEA) has better optimization technique capability compared with Analytical Sub-Domain Particle Swarm Optimization (ASPSO). ASDEA is 48.2 %faster computational time than Analytical Sub-Domain Genetic Algorithm (ASGA) Mfor 6-slot/4-pole PMSM and 71.5 % faster computational time than ASGA for 15- slot/10 pole PMSM. The optimized 6-slot/4-pole PMSM design has 95.5 % efficiency, 0.5491 Nm output torque, 86.3 W output power, 9.9 % total harmonics distortion of phase back-emf, and 0.1566 Nm torque ripple. While the optimized 15- slot/10-pole PMSM has 93.71 % efficiency, 4.72 Nm output torque, 296.22 W output power, 5.39 % total harmonics distortion of phase back-emf, and 0.47 Nm torque ripple. The cogging torque is further minimized when the rotor of the optimized PMSM models is skewed with a selected skewing angle. The optimized 6-slot/4-pole PMSM is skewed with 30° mech. resulting 4.9 mNm cogging torque. While the optimized 15-slot/10-pole PMSM is skewed with 12° mech. resulting 7.7 mNm cogging torque. 2019-08 Thesis http://eprints.usm.my/51253/ http://eprints.usm.my/51253/1/Optimization%20Of%20Fractional-Slot%20Permanent%20Magnet%20Synchronous%20Machine%20Using%20Analytical%20Sub-Domain%20Model%20And%20Differential%20Evolution.pdf application/pdf en public phd doctoral Universiti Sains Malaysia Pusat Pengajian Kejuruteraan Elektrik & Elektronik
