In this paper, we investigate rotor and stator designs of interior permanent synchronous motors for variable speed/load applications to reduce the carrier harmonic losses caused by pulsewidth modulated inverters. The rotor core and magnet shapes are determined by automatic optimization methods with electromagnetic field analysis, which considers the inverter carrier. Appropriate stator-winding configurations are also investigated by this analysis. It is clarified that the total carrier harmonic loss can be reduced by more than 20% by optimizing both the stator and rotor shapes, whereas the other important characteristics are not deteriorated. The mechanism of carrier loss reduction is also clarified.
