CALCULATION OF INDUCTANCE OF THE INTERIOR PERMANENT MAGNET SYNCHRONOUS MOTOR by Phyong Le Ngo

“…Interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) refers to salient-pole synchronous motors, characterized by inequality of inductances of longitudinal (d) and transverse (q) axes. Electromagnetic torque of IPMSM consists of two components: active torque and reactive torque; the latter depends on inductances of d and q axes. …”
