Axial Flux Electric Motor Design

Typically the electric motors are designed and constructed in order to use the radial flux distribution where rotor and stator have a small radial air gap between them whereas axial flux motors are versatile and the winding can be varied by geometric arrangement according to the design specific diameter making it possible to considerably reduce the total volume occupied by the machine.

Axial flux electric motor design.

Implementation of a new design for the process of assembling an axial flux permanent magnet synchronous motor af pmsm may lead to unstable motor parameters during operation at low and high speeds. At the right the concentrated windings of the magnax axial flux motor. Array electric motor model which is an axial flux electric motor with axis orientation perpendicular to the ground as shown in figure 13 which in some cases simplifies mechanical assembly o change the direction of application of the torque. Because of this they are suitable for a range of high performance drivetrain applications.

Avid has in house motor design and manufacturing capabilities suitable for a wide range of. The coil overhang in a traditional radial flux motor is not beneficial for its functioning left. Innovation in axial flux motor design and manufacturing phi power ag designs and builds high performance axial flux motors offering class leading power and torque density. While the vast majority of electric motors currently in circulation are radial flux designs magnax claims the key to the high power density it s achieving is the direct drive axial flux design.

Cooling in case of radial flux machines the heat has to be transported through the stator to the outside of the machine. His brushed dc motor design held the magnets stationary with a spinning armature activated by sliding brushes as the rotor. Based on many years of experience in designing and integrating axial flux motors the engineering team at phi power have developed a range of electric motors from racing to heavy goods. This engine with its small design less than 1 inch thick.

Lightweight compact and relatively powerful the motor was ideal for electric motorcycles. Axial flux motors were studied by british inventor and ev enthusiast cedric lynch as early as 1979.
