Abstract

In the paper the eddy current loss in brushless DC motor due to switching frequency supplied by PWM inverter, is analyzed. The compensated conductivity is used in order to analyze the eddy current loss in brushless DC motor which has lamination structure. The eddy current loss is deceased when switching frequency supplied by PWM inverter is gradually increased from 1.2kHz up to 12kHz. The high switching frequency of PWM inverter make the output wave into a similar sine wave and this leads to the decreasing eddy current loss.
