Abstract:
This Project aims to develop, simulate, and indigenously design a 10 kW PMSM for Electric
Vehicle (EV) applications. The project focuses on creating a mathematical model, conducting
simulations using Motor Solve and Ansys Maxwell 2D Motor Design Software, and
performing experiments to validate the model. Additionally, the improvement in efficiency by
changing the parameters and material (remaining within the cost constraints) are our focus so
that the project may be well suited for mass production in future.
PMSMs often use rare earth metals, which are associated with environmental and ethical
concerns. Our concern is to indigenously develop a PMSM capable of delivering 10kW Power
output, 1500 RPM (Medium) and further to provide a complete and valid Mathematical Model
consisting of valid formulas and variables (dependent, independent, and iterative). Such a
model is envisaged to furnish designers with the flexibility requisite for iterative refinement
and optimization, thus empowering them to navigate the intricate design landscape with
precision and efficacy.
Through this project, we aim to contribute to the sustainable development of EV technology
by mitigating reliance on rare earth metals and advancing the efficiency and viability of
PMSMs for future mass production and widespread adoption in the automotive industry.
