초록

In this paper, thermo-flow characteristics of an outer-rotor type of a BLDC motor are numerically analyzed using three-dimensional turbulence modeling. In an advance design of BLDC motor, cooling blades and holes are preferred for the enhanced cooling performances. Rotating the blades and holes generates axial air flow passing through stator slots, which cools down stator by forced convection. For the present study, a new design of the BLDC motor has been developed and major design parameters such as the arrangement of cooling holes, the area of cooling holes, and cooling blades and the cooling blade angle, are analyzed for the enhanced convective heat transfer rate. It is found that the convective heat transfer rate of the new BLDC motor model is increased by about 8.1%, compared to that of the reference model.
