Abstract

In order to reduce the cogging torque of a symmetrical V-type line-start permanent magnet synchronous (LSPMS) motor, this paper proposes a multi-objective optimization method based on the combination of design parameter stratification and response surface methodology (RSM). The optimal solution to the RSM model is acquired using the max–min ant algorithm. The permanent magnet width, pole opening angle, stator slot width, rotor axial length, and rotor tooth width are selected as optimization variables. The cogging torque and average torque are the optimization objectives. Finite element method (FEM) results show that the cogging torque is reduced by 71.5%, the torque ripple is reduced by 65.6%, and the average torque is improved by 12%. Finally, the effectiveness of the algorithm is verified with simulation results.
