Abstract

Two state-of-the-art machine designs are mainly used in recent electric and hybrid electric vehicles: asynchronous induction machines with squirrel cage which are robust but need a current component to excite the magnetic field; and permanent magnet synchronous machines which rely on somehow more sensible parts but the magnets are able to excite a magnetic field without current. However; if speed gets high enough to reach the field weakening range; for both machine the field oriented control has to prescribe a field current sufficient to reduce the field not to exceed the voltage limits of the stator circuit. Especially for the permanent magnet synchronous machine this paper investigates whether it is possible to determine an optimal field current for every operation point to minimize either total current consumption or losses.
