Efficiency maps for electric machines in electric vehicles. This project aims to improve methods for calculating and predicting efficiency maps, which describe how the efficiency of electric machines varies depending on their operating point. It will interpret and model their features, and link the design parameters to the resultant efficiency map. This project will consider machines including synchronous (permanent magnet, reluctance and wound-field) and induction types. Electric machines are n ....Efficiency maps for electric machines in electric vehicles. This project aims to improve methods for calculating and predicting efficiency maps, which describe how the efficiency of electric machines varies depending on their operating point. It will interpret and model their features, and link the design parameters to the resultant efficiency map. This project will consider machines including synchronous (permanent magnet, reluctance and wound-field) and induction types. Electric machines are normally designed for a single operating point, usually at rated torque and speed. The results are expected to improve machine design to give the best performance in typical driving conditions.Read moreRead less
