Especially, the complex inductance matrix in the machine’s mathematical description causes difficulties in analyzing to build its mathematical model. This paper proposes a method of applying perpendicular transformation to simplify the machine’s model to help the design of controller easier. Keywords: Axial Flux Permanent, perpendicular transformation, PID controller. INTRODUCTION* Axial Flux Permanent - Magnet motor (AFPM) has many advantages such as: high performance, high ratio of power and size, high power density, long life, small moment of inertia, wide speed range, high ratio of torque and current, less affected by interference, and robust [1-4]. Thus, AFPM motors are used widely in high quality speed variable electrical drive systems such as industrial robots, CNC machines, medical equipment, and flywheels in energy storage systems and AFPM motors have the almost absolute advantages in electric cars. The basic differences between AFPM motor and other motors are that the electromotive force of AFPM motor is trapezoid wave form due to its centralized windings (the electromotive force of other motors are sinusoidal wave form due to distributed windings). Because of trapezoid electromotive force, AFPM motor has characteristics similar to characteristics of DC motor, high power density, high capability of torque generation, and high performance. When the application such as electrical drive system
