Overheating in electrical motors results in detrimental effects such as degradation of the insulation materials, demagnetization of magnets, increases in Joule losses, and decreases in motor efficiency and lifetime. Thus, it is important to find ways to dissipate heat from the motor and to keep the motor operating at its most efficient temperature. In this study, a new design to guide air flow through a given brushless direct current (BLDC) motor is developed and the design is analyzed, specifically by using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. The results showed that the temperature distribution in the three proposed models is lower than that in the original model, although the speed of the cooling fan in the original model reaches a very high value of $15{\times}10^3$ rpm. The results also showed that CFD can be effectively used to simulate the heat transfer of BLDC motors.

In this study, the energy conversion characteristics and design of electric vehicle (EV: Electric Vehicle) powertrain were performed. An interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) was targeted as a power source for the EV powertrain, and control was performed. In order to drive the IPMSM, two regions are considered: a constant torque and a constant output (field-weakening) region. The design of the control system for IPMSM was constructed based on the d-q reference frame (vector control). To determine the static characteristics of motor torque appearing in two areas of IPMSM, a torque control system and a d axis current control system of IPMSM were implemented and proposed. Matlab-Simulink software was used for characteristic analysis. Finally, by applying IPMSM to the powertrain model under the actual EV vehicle level conditions, simulation results of the proposed control system were performed and characteristics were analyzed.

This paper describes a development of traction unit for 2-motor driven electric vehicle (EV). The traction unit is consisted with an interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM), a reduction gear and an inverter for electric vehicle that is driven by 2 motors without differential gear. For traction unit, prototype IPMSM and inverter have been developed. The IPMSM was designed by CAD program that was developed with both equivalent circuit method and FEM. Also the inverter was developed to drive 2 motors with 6 legs IGBT switches in a control board. The vector control algorithm was implemented with maximum torque control method in the constant torque region and field weakening control method in the constant power region considering inverter capacity. To verify that the traction unit is more high efficiency and has more high power density than a traction unit with induction motor with the same power, we would like to show the results about the design and analysis of the IPMSM and the experiment results about the traction unit.

This paper deals with torque harmonic characteristics and its reduction design of induction motors for electric vehicle (EV) propulsion. For calculating the stator harmonic flux of squirrel-cage induction motor, the numerical methods have been employed on the structural configuration design of stator and rotor teeth. In particular, torque ripples including spatial harmonics are obtained by Finite Element Method (FEM), and their individual harmonic components are identified with Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). In this paper, design modification on the teeth surface gives rise to the significant reduction of torque ripples including spatial torque harmonics, which have been obtained with FEM.

Usually, after the decisions of the performance and range in the commercial vehicle, it is designed the ratings of the electric and mechanical elements for the vehicles. In this paper, the given performance and driving conditions, which are the maximum velocity, mileage, total weight of the normal gasoline scooter, battery type and size, and so on, are analysed for the design of the electric scooter. The maximum rotational speed and needed torque values of the electric motor which is substituted for the gasoline engine are calculated. These values can help to calculate the rating of the electric motor. In the calculation to obtain the torque and speed values, battery discharge and the running resistances are considered. We can decide the electric motor current value from the torque and speed values. The electric motor current values, which are significant parameter to decide the motor type and dimensions and characteristics of the electric motor, are decided by numerical simulation by the above conditions.

To control the torque of the IPMSM, a lookup table is generally used in control system because of its nonlinear characteristics. However, the method of generating the lookup table data has the disadvantage of having difficulty accurately analyzing the changing parameters, generating the current or magnetic flux map is complicated and long test time taken due to motor temperature differences at each test points. In this paper, on the basis of the electromagnetic field design of IPMSM, we devised an electromagnetic field-based magnetic flux map model that can compensate for the pre-generated magnetic flux map through a quick and simple test.

Since the electric vehicle uses an electric motor, problems have arisen as the driver hears the inherent noise of the motor or external noise, which was not a problem in the past, due to the overall lower noise environment than when using an internal combustion engine. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to reduce the noise and vibration of electric motors for electric vehicles, and recently, to increase the speed of high-power, high-efficiency electric motors in a small size, and to develop low-noise motors, IPM motors are applied to produce 35KW electric motors for electric vehicles. A motor for low noise was designed and implemented. N-T Curve and efficiency map were confirmed as the final result of developing a 35KW low-noise motor for electric vehicles by applying the IPM motor applied in this paper. Based on 3500 rpm, Max Torque [Nm]: 121.15, Max Power [KW]: 44.04, and Max Efficiency [%]: 97.65, showing high efficiency.
