A Novel Social Insect Optimization Algorithm for the Optimal Design of an Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machine

초록

Optimization of an electric machine is a nonlinear multi-variable problem. For optimization of the nonlinear multi-variable problem, many function evaluations are required, which in turn requires much time. To address this problem, we propose a novel optimization algorithm of which the convergence speed, accuracy, and reliability are superior compared to those of widely used conventional algorithms. The performance of the proposed algorithm is verified through mathematical test functions and applied to a practical optimization scenario of cogging torque minimization for an interior permanent magnet synchronous machine.
