© 2014 IEEE. This paper presents the core loss computation in a permanent magnet transverse flux motor (TFM) with soft magnetic composite stator core and mild steel rotor yoke, in which the magnetic fluxes rotate. The computation is based on modified core loss models and finite element magnetic field analysis [finite element analysis (FEA)]. The coefficients for the core loss models are obtained by curve-fitting measurements on samples, and the magnetic flux density patterns in the motor are obtained by time-stepping FEA while operating conditions are considered. The computations of the motor core losses agree with the measured values on the TFM prototype.
