External stray magnetic fields from permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs) may cause electromagnetic interference to nearby equipment and limit their application in space-constrained systems. To address this issue, this paper investigates the use of laminated Co-based amorphous ribbon shields for stray-field suppression. An efficient equivalent modeling method is proposed for the simulation of such multilayer thin shielding structures, in which the laminated shield is replaced by an equivalent single-layer model while preserving its macroscopic shielding behavior. The method is first assessed in 2-D through comparisons between refined laminated and simplified equivalent models under both linear permeability and nonlinear magnetization-curve descriptions, and is then extended to 3-D PMSM shielding analysis under static and rotating no-load conditions with experimental validation. Results show that the 10-layer amorphous ribbon shield, with a total thickness of 420 μm, achieves a maximum shielding effectiveness of 7.9 dB at a measurement distance of two motor radii. The maximum deviation between simulation and experiment is 7.4%, and the equivalent model reduces computation time by 28% relative to the refined model. This method provides an accurate and efficient approach for the analysis and design of compact low-frequency magnetic shields for PMSMs.
