Abstract

Driving cycles are commonly used to evaluate the fuel efficiency and mileage of internal combustion engine vehicles and electric vehicles (EVs). To improve the mileage of EVs, efficient propulsion motors and inverters must be employed, particularly at frequently used speed and torque points of driving cycles. In this study, the number of the stator winding turns of a tap-change permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) used for EV propulsion was investigated to increase the motor and inverter energy efficiencies under an urban dynamometer driving schedule (UDDS), a highway fuel economy test (HWFET), and combined UDDS/HWFET driving cycles. The motor core loss due to the carrier harmonics, copper loss, and inverter loss were analyzed for various winding turn number combinations, and the most efficient combination was selected. Based on the analysis results, the tap-change motor winding turns that exhibited the least loss were rewound on a PMSM of a mass-produced EV. The demand energy of the proposed tap-change PMSM and that of a mass-produced PMSM in the UDDS, HWFET, and combined UDDS/HWFET driving cycles were compared through experimentation. The proposed PMSM exhibited energy improvements of 1.50%, 1.84%, and 1.65%, respectively.
