This paper deals with the computation of hysteresis torque in electric machines by means of the hysteresis Preisach model in finite element methods. In most cases, core loss is divided into hysteresis loss and eddy current loss. However, this component experiences mostly hysteresis loss at low speed. This hysteresis loss acts on the braking torque with cogging in the permanent magnet motor. In order to analyze the hysteresis torque, the Preisach hysteresis model is applied to the post-processor using the finite element method. In this method, computation errors can occur more than with the existing analysis method, but this method can compute hysteresis torque without complex nonlinear analysis. The hysteresis torque that is bearing friction is compared with test results. Both simulations and experiments are performed to verify the validity of the proposed method.
