Design and Comparative Analysis of PMSM, BLDC, SynRM, and PMAssi-SynRM Motors for Two-Wheeler Electric Vehicle Application

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to present the design analysis and comparison between BLDC, PMSM, SynRM, and PMAssi-SynRM done under parameters of 1.5 kW,48 V for two-wheeler EV application. All four motors are used in electric vehicles. The stator and slot design of each motor are the same, but the rotor has a different structure. Design is done in ANSYS Maxwell 2D and Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is used to evaluate the performance of all the motors. Finite Element Analysis also relatable with modelling and simulation of motors. Motors performance is differentiated according to efficiency, torque characteristics, torque ripple with torque angle as well as RMS phase current and cost ratio of all the motors. In comparing the characteristics of motors best motor for two-wheeler EV application was chosen for drive implementation.
