Abstract

This paper presents a novel topology of dual rotor radial flux-BLDC motor with Halbach array magnets as an efficient solution for drives. Energy efficient motors are the need of day for electric vehicles, industrial and consumer products. Especially this concept is arrived to cater for the requirements of electrical vehicle. Due to advent of high permeability, high saturation magnetic materials, high energy product permanent magnets, BLDC motors are suitable candidate for electric vehicle propulsion. Traditionally, outer rotor BLDC motor is a wide choice which is being used in commercially available electric vehicles. New topologies of BLDC motors are being proposed by research activities which aim at improvement of torque density of motors. Dual rotor brushless DC machine (DR-BLDC) is one of the consequences of such research and claimed to have very high torque density and power density. In this paper, a new topology of Dual Rotor Halbach (DR-HB) BLDC motor is proposed which is aimed to increase the torque density of motor. The complete design of DR-HB BLDC motor is carried out and compared with DR-BLDC of the same specifications and volume. The obtained performance characteristics of the proposed design are very much encouraging in terms of torque density.
