Removal of the gear-box from a conventional all-electric vehicle (EV) power-train and incorporating direct-drive topology is expected to improve motor-to-wheel efficiency. Firstly, this paper discusses the merits and challenges of a novel direct-drive scheme employing a single on-board motor in an EV. Thereafter, motor design targets established for such an application in a typical super-mini EV are...
Surface Permanent Magnet (SPM) synchronous machines with fractional slot concentrated windings (FSCW) have been found to provide high torque density with low torque ripple and cogging torque, making them suitable for direct-drive electric vehicle (EV) application. This paper initially analyses a 3-phase 36/30 FSCW SPM machine for direct-drive application in terms of its space harmonics, steady-state...
Removal of the gear-box from an existing electric vehicle (EV) power-train incorporating direct-drive topology is expected to improve motor-to-wheel efficiency. Firstly, this paper discusses the need for a novel direct-drive scheme employing a single on-board motor in an EV. Electric machine and drive design targets for such a supermini EV with direct-drive scheme are fixed based on analytical equations,...
Understanding the need for improvement in efficiency of an electric vehicle drivetrain system, this paper exclusively discusses various design aspects of a permanent magnet machine drive for direct-drive electric vehicles (EV). Firstly, the motivation to employ a direct-drive configuration in EV is discussed. Thereafter, initial electric machine rating design considerations for a typical Supermini...
