Abstract
In this paper, a new outer-rotor permanent magnet (PM) brushless dc drive is designed and analyzed. To enable this drive applicable to electric vehicles, its transient performances at both normal and flux-weakening operations are particularly focused. The distinct feature in design is due to the new motor configuration including the outer-rotor topology, the multipole magnetic circuit and the full slot-pitch coil span arrangement. The distinct feature in analysis is due to the development of the circuit-field-torque coupled time-stepping finite-element method. The proposed PM brushless dc drive is prototyped. The analysis results are verified by experimental measurement.
