(5),
eddy-current loss of unit mass is expressed as Eq.
The model in [3] can well modify the
eddy-current loss in the silicon substrate, while the T-model in [4] has been proposed to accurately simulate the broadband characteristics of spiral inductors.

eddy-current loss in round-wire windings," Power Electronics Specialists Conference, 873-879, Aachen, Germany, 2004.
In [12] [14] the flux density waveforms are estimated in stator tooth and yoke, and some analytical expressions are derived to calculate hysteresis loss and
eddy-current loss. However, these approaches are usually used in the design procedure of PM machines where iron losses should be calculated many times while executing the design algorithms.
Iron loss consists of the hysteresis loss and
eddy-current loss. It can be estimated using [13]

eddy-current losses in IPM motors depending on the field weakening angle and current waveform", in XIV Int.
The
eddy-current losses are produced by circulation of parasitic eddy currents through iron and are dictated by changes in flux density over time.
The magnet
eddy-current losses are neglected in the analysis but as the Halbach magnets are highly segmented, these losses will be relatively low [38].
