Simulation Based Analysis of Outer Rotor Brushless DC Motor for Electric Vehicle Application

摘要

In the recent times BLDC motors have been gaining popularity in the field of electrical vehicles. This paper presents a simulation-based analysis of Permanent magnet BLDC motor having high slot and pole configuration for the application of electric vehicles. A 1500W, 120V, 3000rpm BLDC motor was designed using ANSYS maxwell software. The initial geometry was designed in RMxprt tool of ANSYS Maxwell and its analytical results were obtained, this design was then taken into Maxwell 2D environment where 2D model of the designed motor was obtained. After obtaining 2D model the designed motors dynamic performance was analyzed using finite element analysis. The results obtained were good and high efficiency was obtained.
