Resource Abstract

In this paper, performance driven design of electric vehicle motors is presented using integrated multi-disciplinary optimization for electromagnetic and stress performance requirements. The objective is to maximize the electric motor power and torque while reducing the motor mass and electromagnetic losses. For an efficient development process with reduced time, the design must receive synchronized feedback from all simulation domains. A typical workflow of such a design process, followed by an approach to democratize these complex simulations with ease is presented to show the benefits of this technology.
