Electric Mobility and Types of Electric Drive Motor Technologies
Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology · Area of research: Electric Mobility
Abstract
Electric mobility these days presents a crystal-clear solution for addressing issues like climate change, pollution, and energy security. Whereas the existing technology in electric vehicles is being modernized, ICEs belong to the past. Electric drive motor technologies have been integrated to improve the efficiency, performance, and reliability of electric vehicles. These are brushless direct current motors (BLDC), AC induction motors, permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM), and switched reluctance motors (SRM) for the motivation of electric drive motor technologies. The impacts of each motor technology are in terms of energy efficiency, power density, economic factors, and management totally coordinating efforts to strive for optimum conditions. BLDC motor types are the best-known and recognized technologies due to their prime attributes?the efficiencies and the reliability attributes; whereas the AC induction motor is believed to be practically maintenance-free. PMSMs attain the highest power density and the highest efficiencies and are more readily found in high-performance applications for EVs, while SRMs are chosen for a slight cost advantage and durability coupled with the fewest limitations on operations. The final choice of a type of motor technology will largely depend on considerations such as performance, power requirements, energy efficiency, raw material prices, and complexity of control to be incorporated into a vehicle system. This paper will cover an in-depth discussion on the comparison of electric drive motors from their working principles.
