“…Later on, developments in material technology, such as the production of a new generation of permanent magnets, and progress in power electronics provided new types of axial flux permanent magnet (AFPM) motor designs. Nowadays these motors are preferred in direct-drive traction applications because of their wide speed range operation capacity and compact structure [2][3][4][5]. For the same electrical performance indicators, AFPM motors have lower axial length, less weight, and a more compact structure.…”

Abstract:The aim of this paper is to develop a methodology to design an axial flux permanent magnet brushless direct current (AFPM) motor for a washing machine and compare the results with a conventional radial flux permanent magnet brushless direct current (RFPM) motor with the same power ratings. The AFPM motor is designed based on the maximum power density for an optimum inner-to-outer diameter ratio by using the reference RFPM motor constraints, such as the same rated torque at the rated speed. Both motors use the same materials in terms of lamination, permanent magnet, and conductor. They both use ferrite magnets; however, the AFPM motor has a surface-mounted structure and the RFPM motor has a buried one. The algorithm is used to determine the motor dimensions such as motor diameters, lengths, and the number of turns. The optimum number of poles considered for the design is chosen. Both motors are analyzed by finite element method (FEM) to verify the analytical approach and are compared in terms of power density, torque density, total weight and volume, torque ripple, and efficiency.

“…The sizing procedure of the other topologies implemented in EMTool are similar for other types of radial flux electric motors [22][23][24][25]43], while axial flux motors' design procedure follows a different philosophy [26][27][28][29]. The main steps are described bellow [30,31].…”

“…The motor mechanical power transmitted to its shaft via a gear amplifier and a differential. The gear amplifier allows the car to reach the maximum speed and reduce the motor supply frequency, which leads to a considerable reduction of losses in the converter mainly dependent on the switching frequency also reduced losses in the motor leading to a significant improvement in autonomy [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15].…”

Abstract:The production of electric cars in large series is still hampered by their low autonomy due mainly to the low energy storage capacity of the batteries and the importance of overall losses of the power chain. Indeed, the electric vehicle monitoring strategy is a key factor in energy savings leading to improved of the autonomy. In this paper, we present a systemic control methodology of a synchronous motor with axial flux dedicated to electric traction, taking into account several constraints such as speed limit, the cost of the traction chain losses of the various components of the electric vehicle and the system reliability.
