| Summary: | This paper presents the design for a high-speed permanent magnet synchronous machine (PMSMs) considering the demagnetization and mechanical characteristics of rare-earth magnets based on the operating temperature. The TRV equation and plane stress analytical method are considered for the temperature, the rotor size is derived from the analysis results of the sleeve thickness, and the stator is designed on the basis of the results of the electromagnetic analysis method. The B–H curve of the permanent magnet (PM) changes with its operating temperature; thus, a thermal demagnetization analysis is conducted to verify the irreversible demagnetization caused by the operating temperature and armature reaction field using electromagnetic finite element method (FEM). It is necessary to consider the irreversible demagnetization with the operating temperature because it can decrease the electromagnetic performance. Therefore, the electromagnetic characteristics of high-speed machines using rare-earth PMs are analyzed to confirm irreversible demagnetization. The validity of the proposed design is confirmed via comparative verifications with the measured results from prototype models.
