Although demand for the multi-segmented and multi-layered (MSML) interior permanent magnet (IPM) motor is high, the analytic method for this motor has not yet been proposed. The finite element method has been used in the analysis and design of the MSML IPM motor, even though it takes much time to perform. To solve this problem, the correct and rapid analytic analysis method for the MSML IPM motor is proposed in this paper. This method is called the MCC method because it is the combination of the Magnetic equivalent circuit, Conformal mapping to consider slotting effect, and Concentration flux of IPM. Furthermore, the feasibility of the optimization of the MSML motor by using the proposed MCC method is verified in this paper.
