Torque ripple suppression method of high saturation permanent magnet synchronous motor based on current injection method

Abstract Torque ripple is an important factor affecting the smoothness of permanent magnet synchronous motor. However, for high saturation permanent magnet synchronous motor (HSPMSM), the flux linkage of permanent magnet is nonlinear, which leads to poor effect of traditional torque ripple suppression methods. Therefore, by systematically considering the amplitude and phase changes of the permanent magnet flux link‐age for the first time, this paper analyzes the torque ripple mechanism of high saturation motors and establishes a corresponding mathematical model. To minimize the loss caused by harmonic currents, two torque ripple suppression methods are proposed: one based on the NSGA‐II algorithm and the other based on an analytical method. Finally, the effectiveness of the two algorithms is verified by the experimental comparison. The experimental results show that compared with the traditional methods, the two algorithms can effectively suppress the torque ripple under the premise of considering the influence of the motor magnetic saturation on the flux linkage and inductance, and improve the output torque smoothness of HSPMSM.
