Mathematical Models for the Design of Electrical Machines

This book is a comprehensive set of articles reflecting the latest advances and developments in mathematical modeling and the design of electrical machines for different applications. The main models discussed are based on the: i) Maxwell-Fourier method (i.e. the formal resolution of Maxwells equations by using the separation of variables method and the Fouriers series in 2-D or 3-D with a quasi-Cartesian or polar coordinate system); ii) electrical thermal and magnetic equivalent circuit; iii) hybrid model. In these different papers the numerical method and the experimental tests have been used as comparisons or validations.
