In this paper, a multimode design method is proposed for motor design under multiple operation conditions. Based on the driving cycles in electric vehicles, five typical operation conditions and the corresponding five driving modes are determined for the multimode design. To investigate the method conveniently, a flux controllable stator permanent magnet (SPM) memory motor is selected and taken as a design example. In the design process, by using the sensitivity analysis method, the significance of the parameters in various driving modes are evaluated effectively. Based on the motor driving demands, the whole optimization design is divided into three steps, where different optimization method is applied in each step. To verify the feasibility of the multimode design method, the operation performances of the motor in different driving modes are investigated in detail. Finally, a prototype motor is built and tested. Both the simulation and experimental results reveal that the proposed design method can offer an effective design optimization for the flux-controllable SPM memory motor, where multimode operations are indispensable.
