CoEnergy-based model for DC excited flux-switching motor

This paper investigates the applicability of the CoEnergy approach for a DC excited flux-switching motor. Based on CoEnergy data extracted from a finite element model, a macromodel of the motor is created. This “fast” model allows to work with analytical functions instead of lookup tables. The proposed model has a good accuracy when the excitation field of a DC winding prevails in the magnetization and, therefore, can be used for the purpose of electric powertrain system modelling.
