This paper describes independent phase BLDC motor with a maximum torque among BLDC motor used for electric propulsion system Independent phase BLDC motor has characteristic that phases of stator we independent electrically. This paper is modeling two type of 3 phases BLDC motors, one has Y-connection type and the other has independent type, and it shows simulation of them, compares its characteristics. As a result of simulation, phase voltage of independent 3 phase BLDC motor is higher than Y-connection three phase BLDC motor. When the stator resistance and inductance are stable, high phase voltage causes an increase in maximum phase current and an increases in it serially causes an increase of maximum torque. It is also found that the current pulsation of independent phase BLDC motor was decreased by controlling phase current of independent BLDC motor.

Several techniques have been adopted in motor design of interior permanent magnet (IPM) type brushless DC (BLDC) motor to minimize cogging torque. IPM type motor has better ability in the centralization of flux than surface-mounted permanent magnet (SPM) type BLDC motor. So, the structure of IPM type BLDC motor has high saliency ratios that produce additional torque. However, this structure has a significant cogging torque that generates both vibration and noise. This paper describes new technique of the flux barriers design for reduction of cogging torque of IPM type BLDC motor. To reduce the cogging torque, flux barriers are applied in the rotor. Changing the number of barrier, the cogging torque is analyzed by finite clement method(FEM).

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.

In this paper, thermal reliability of a closed type BLDC (Brushless DC) motor for high speed axial fan was analyzed by the accelerated life test. The closed type BLDC (Model No. MB1-8855-J01) motor was controlled by PCB module, which was composed of various electrical components. The failure of the closed type BLDC motor happened in PCB module due to high temperature. Failure mechanism of the closed type BLDC motor appears to be electrolyte dry out of capacitor. The accelerate life test was performed in temperature stress of $85^{\circ}C\;and\;105^{\circ}C$, respectively The failure data from the accelerated life test were analyzed and the life in each stress level was estimated with 960h and 261 h. At last, both life expression according to operating temperature of PCB module and life of the closed type BLBC motor in normal condition $(50^{\circ}C)$ were suggested.

This paper presents a design and characteristics analysis of interior permanent magnet (IPM) type BLDC motor for electric vehicle. In order to design of IPM type BLDC motor, surface mounted permanent magnet(SPM) type BLDC motor is used as the initial design model. According to the size of permanent magnet, the steady state characteristics is analysized by equivalent magnetic circuit method. The characteristics analysis results of the designed motor is compared with the experimental results.

The products using blowers include hand dryers, automatic car washers, dryers, and vacuum cleaners. The features of these products require a structure and control algorithm so that a strong wind is blown out at the moment. Electric motors according to the existing excitation method include a direct winding type, a decentralized type, a lottery type, and a permanent magnet type. Conventional electric motors have a disadvantage when the starting current is large during high-speed rotation and the number of rotations is irregular. In order to improve this, research on high-speed BLDC motor control has designed 800W-class high-speed BLDC motor control and circuit through driving circuit design, sensorless control algorithm, simulation, experiment, etc., and more than 95% high efficiency evaluation method of driving performance of controller, prototype experiments and verification were studied.

Conventional LPG pump for Liquified Petroleum injection(LPi) engine has been adopted vane type. But the BLDC type fuel pump for LPi system has complicated structure and its price is high. Therefore, as a alternative, this study has mainly focused on the development of turbine type LPG pump which has lower cost and simple structure than conventional BLDC type. To verify the possibility of substitute the performance tests were performed for each fuel pump. The comparative items were pressure settling time, variation of fuel outlet temperature and engine performance of hot restart ability. As a result, performances of turbine type LPG pump were equivalent or high comparing to the BLDC type all over the tests for different fuel composition.

In this paper, thermo-flow characteristics of an outer-rotor type BLDC motor are numerically analyzed using three-dimensional turbulence modeling. On the rotor of the BLDC motor, cooling blades and cooling holes are existed for the enhanced cooling performances. Rotating the blades and holes generates axial air flow streaming into inner rotor side and passing through stator slots, which cools down stator by forced convection. Operating tests are performed and the numerical temperature fields are found to be in good agreement with experimental results. A new design of the BLDC motor has also 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.

This paper is about electromagnetic vibration source in outer rotor type of BLDC motors. Experiments are carried out with three pole-slot combinations which are 6 slots, 12 slots, and 24 slots with 4 poles rotor. According to results, vibration sources separate into electromagnetic and mechanical factors. Using the finite element method (FEM), It is analyed that vibration characteristics of electromagnetic source in each type. This paper shows electromagnetic sensitivity to vibration, and introduces necessary point in lower vibration motors. Also rotor balance is important to prevent uneven distribution of magnetic flux between rotor and stator.

The BLDC(Brushless DC) motor with the permanent magnet has many merits such as high efficiency and efficiency. These characteristics of the BLDC motor makes them one of the most popular motors in the world today. The C type ferrite magnet is many used in BLDC motor for high performance, especilly low price. Many papers have been written on the analysis of the BLDC motor with C type ferrite magnet. But, most of these target models are contained symmetric distribution of permanent magnet. In this paper, investigations are made on different distribution of permanent magnets for a understanding of the effects of unequal permanent magnet location on the unbalanced cogging torque. Motor torque and cogging torque are obtained by using the 2 dimensional finite element method.
