Development of 50kW traction induction motor for electric vehicle (EV)

Abstract

This paper summarizes the development processes of 50kW induction motor for electric vehicle. The main goal of the motor development was to produce the motor satisfying the provided design and performance requirements. In this paper, motor design and performance requirements will be presented and electromagnetic, thermal, mechanical design and analysis results will be also introduced. And finally performance characteristics of the manufactured motors will be checked from various test results.
