A model of permanent-magnet synchronous machine (PMSM), including the electromagnetically originated torque ripple, is presented in this paper. This unique representation of such equivalent circuit is highly critical to understand the torque ripple content and to develop an appropriate mitigation scheme for low torque ripple applications requiring four quadrant operations. This research proposes a method to quantify the various sources of torque ripple and modifies the existing dq-model to enhance the modeling capabilities for both surface-mount and interior PMSMs. Finite-element (FE) analysis is used for modeling various PMSMs to verify the lumped circuit model proposed in this research. The theoretical results obtained from analytical and FE analysis are validated using experimental test.
