Abstract
The zero-sequence inductance is a vital parameter for the performance analysis of permanent magnet machines, especially under faulty conditions or in open-winding machines. This paper focuses on the zero-sequence inductance calculation of fractional slot concentrated winding permanent magnet synchronous machines (FSCW-PMSMs), and reveals the variation regularity of this kind of inductance and its various components against pole/slot combinations, using the winding function and finite element methods. Moreover, based on the analysis of 36-slot FSCW-PMSMs with different pole numbers, the dependency of each inductance component on the pole/slot combination is discussed in detail. To validate the regularities, experimental measurements of zero-sequence inductance are implemented in the prototype of the 36-slot stator. It is found that the regularities are independent of specific slot or pole numbers, which provide guidelines for optimum pole/slot combination selection, to mitigate the problems caused by zero-sequence current.
