For many industrial applications that including electric motor, selecting of the appropriate motor type is keypoint for the application success and efficiency. This paper presents a comparative performance evaluation between direct torque controlled Brushless AC and Brushless DC motors which have been considered as traction motor on electric vehicles. Moreover, a short review to brushless AC an...

Thanks to the development of electric motors and batteries, the performance of EV is greatly improved in the past few years. The most distinct advantage of an EV is the quick and precise torque response of the electric motors. A further merit of a 4 in-wheel-motor drived electric vehicle (4WD EV) is that, the driving/braking torque of each wheel is independently adjustable due to small but powe...

Accurate computing of the saturated inductances of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machine (PMSM) is very important during the design process. In this paper, a new method is presented based on the B-H characteristic of the stator material and unsaturated inductances formulations. This method is used to calculate the saturated inductances of the axial flux PMSM. The synchronous inductance and all o...

A novel structure of switched reluctance motors (SRMs) is proposed. The proposed structure uses the benefits of the axial flux path, short flux path, segmental rotor, and flux reversal free stator motors all together to improve the torque density of the SRMs. The main geometrical, electrical and physical specifications are presented. In addition, some features of the proposed structure are comp...

Three-phase induction motors are widely used in electric traction systems. Impacts of the traction vehicle equipped by three-phase induction motors on power quality are much different from the impacts of vehicles with DC traction motors. In this paper, the effects of the traction vehicle operation with threephase induction motors on power quality in 110 kV transmission network are investigated....

The electromechanical interaction in electric machines induces additional forces between the rotor and stator. To study this interaction, a simple electromechanical model was developed. The mechanical behaviour was modelled by the Jeffcott rotor. The electromagnetic forces were described by a simple parametric model including two electormagnetic variables. The aim of the study was to investigat...

some of the important mechanical loads in the civil and military industries are variable speed and power and their efficiency. mechanical coupling of two different electric motors is suitable for these types of application. using this technique reduces energy consumption of submarine’s motion system and submarine range would be increased. but the use of this technique requires a complex control...

Electric motors that have found wide application in various sectors of industry Have unique features such as high reliability, high efficiency, quick acceleration and have small sizes. Brushless DC motors meet these requirements well. In this study, the design of a brushless DC motor speed limits for the particular application at 1800 rpm that can be equivalent to 140 watts output was provided....

Rapid price decreases for ICT-products in the 1990s have been largely attributed to the introduction of hedonic price indexes. Would hedonic price indexing also have large effects on measured price and productivity during earlier technological breakthroughs? This paper investigates the impact of hedonic and matched model methods on historical data for electric motors in Sweden 1900–35. The resu...
