This paper presents a general analytical fault model in a compact matrix form for surface-mounted permanent magnet (SPM) machines with parallel-connected coils, which is useful to study the machine performance under the inter-turn short circuit (ITSC) fault. To simplify the fault model, the multiphase Clarke transformation has been proposed. In the model, the branch currents rather than the phase currents are employed as state variables to describe machine behaviours under fault. Additionally, self- and mutual-inductances are obtained by winding function approach (WFA) plus slot permeance method. The proposed analytical fault model is applied to a 3 kW 96-slot 32-pole SPM machine and validated by time-stepping FE simulations. A small scale 12-slot 4-pole SPM machine prototype has also been built to further validate the accuracy of the proposed fault model.
