Calculation of Performance Characteristic of In-Wheel Asynchronous Motor for Electric Vehicle

Year 2017, Volume: 6 Issue: Özel Sayı (ISMSIT2017), 10 - 20, 29.12.2017

Abstract

The main purpose of this study is regarding to design an in-wheel motor
for an electric vehicle. Besides, the geometric optimization study of designed
asynchronous motor has been realized to achieve maximum performance. In this
study, performance characteristics of asynchronous motors in different
geometric dimensions were investigated using the ANSYS RMXprt program.
Investigated performance characteristics relate to rated revolution and rated
torque, starting torque, breakdown torque, power factor, efficiency and
magnetic flux on rotor and stator. A new motor model with hybrid geometry has
been proposed. By using experimental results from calculating motor
performance, an interpolation graph was created.  A performance curve for this motor is fitted
through the generated interpolation graph. The motor performance has been tried
to investigate engine performance by this curve on interpolation graph. It is
predicted that better results can be obtained a motor with hybrid geometry from
obtained findings. Therefore, some analysis has been done to confirm the
proposed model. This motor model with hybrid geometry has been shown to
optimize the performance characteristics in a limited package on in-wheel
motors. Future work for this motor with hybrid geometry has been planned to
investigate performance characteristics on the 3D platform by using finite
element method.
