The IPM motor with ferrite magnet and NdFeB based SPM motor have been comparatively investigated as such different slot/pole combinations and number of flux-barrier layer in IPM motor are analyzed in an effort to reduce torque ripple while minimizing cost and weight. With a parametric optimization process, the torque ripple ratio of IPM motor has been lowered below 5%. in addition due to the use of ferrite, the cost has been reduced by 60% compared to the SPM motor.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessGearless elevator systemsdirect drive applicationssurface-mounted PM (SPM) motorsinterior PM (IPM) motorsmachine designferrite magnetsrare-earth magnetstorque rippleConference Object635641WOS:000542969300094N/A
