A brushless DC (BLDC) electric motor is likened to a motor with brushes, but turned “inside-out.” A BLDC motor has a rotor with permanent magnets and the stator contains the windings. Older motors ...

Abstract: The paper presents the study of magnet overhang effects in a permanent magnet brushless DC (PM BLDC) motor. Two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) finite element (FE) analysis was ...

Abstract: In this paper, a novel integral-force technique to calculate the developed torque of an axial-field permanent magnet brushless DC (PM BLDC) motor using minimum requirement of 2D FE analyses ...
