Industry is increasingly adopting high-speed electric machines due to their high-power density and low cost. However, increasing the speed leads to many challenges that are worth to study since they have relevant impact on the design of the machine. One of these challenges is the losses in stator winding assembly. At low frequency, losses in windings are usually assumed equal to DC losses. However, at high frequency some phenomena become noticeable and worth evaluating since they lead to noticeable losses. AC losses in windings are due to skin effect, proximity effect, and circulating currents. The main models of AC losses in windings in the literature are presented for both circular and rectangular wires. These models are compared using both interior and surface-mounted permanent magnet synchronous machines. Results show that for proximity effect, analytical model is convenient when considering armature reaction only, however, when considering on load case, hybrid model with simple FEA is suitable thanks to its interesting trade-off between accuracy and computation time, which makes it suitable for large-scale optimization. For circulating currents effect, finite element model is unavoidable. Moreover, two important properties concerning circulating currents are stated as well as their mathematical proofs.
