Substantial advantages of brushless doubly fed induction machine (BDFIM) bring up it as an interesting alternative for conventional solutions. In order to better analyze BDFIM performance, it is required to employ a more precise model of BDFIM. In this article, an approach, which completely relies on dynamic modeling in arbitrary reference frame, is proposed to consider both iron loss and main flux saturation effects in two-axis model of BDFIM. In this regard, the dynamic and static inductances are derived by using the magnetizing flux curve. If the cross-saturation is ignored, the time derivative of magnetizing inductances will yield incorrect simulation results. Therefore, to increase the accuracy, the proposed model contains terms that describe the cross-saturation effects. Due to the close relation between torque and power, the torque expression is also achieved in the presence of iron loss and magnetic saturation using expression of electrical input power. The simulation and experimental results are finally given to show the performance of the proposed model.
