Permanent Magnet Flux
Set d = q = 0 amps and calculate flux linkage of
the Phase A winding: ΨAm
ΨM = ΨA − ΨAm

Core Loss
3. Obtain ud and uq :
ud = R1id − ωψ q
uq = R1iq − ωψ d
Calculate Performance Curves
4. Calculate the line voltage, U1.
5. Test if U1 exceeds the maximum allowable
voltage, i.e. U1 < Umax (DC bus voltage)
6. If U1 > Umax decrease id until U1 = Umax.
7. Calculate Stator Current and Line Voltage
I1 =
id2 + iq2
U1 =
(
3 ud2 + uq2 ) U1 < U max
