After successfully building a brushless controller i have decided also to build my own brushless motor. Autocad Inventor 3D cad software was used by me to design 3D model of the motor.

Before start to design something you need to know the RPM needed,torque needed,running voltage, max Amps. This formula is for calculating the torque if you have the power and the speed. motor Torque foruma  After reading the gear ratio on  Opel Agila it resulted that i need a speed of 4000RPM to reach 73.4Km/h in 3-rd gear ( i do not need more than that in a city). I decided to make a reverse outrunner motor design because is more easy to cool the stator if is outside. If the sator is inside is more difficult to cool down. The draw-back is that you loose torque because you have a smaller diameter of the rotor. I opted for a 48 slots (teeth) and 40 magnets design and i will have 142.5Nm of torque.

  • Nominal Power: 45KW
  • Nominal Voltage: 230v
  • Nominal current:200A
  • Winding configuration : Delta
  • RPM: 2600
  • Torque 165Nm
  • Construction : 48 slot, 40 Magnets Neodymium
  • Lamination Grade M330
  • Cooling : Glycol
  • Weight: 17Kg
  • Copper weight ~ 2.7kg

Windings:

  • Can be : delta or Star ( WYE)
  • Delta connection will give you higher power per cooper amount, higher RPM, higher current, lower phase voltage.
  • STAR will give you lower RPM, higher torque (1,73 more than dela) , higher the voltage, lower the current.
  • Can be: concentrated or fractional slot type.
  • If there are concentrated can be: LRK, distributed LRK etc.
  • A good winding scheme calculator can be found here.

winding scheme calculator

 

How to choose the magnets ?

After you choose the slots and poles, you need to choose the magnets. This is not very easy task because you need hi temperature magnets and are not so cheap and easy to find for your needed size. I bought custom made magnets from a Chinese website.

  •  The temperature rating for Neodymium is only a guide value. The actual temperature where magnet start to loose strength is size, shape and magnetic circuit dependent. If you have a magnet attached to a piece of steel  i will demagnetize at higher magnetic flux than in a free space.  On the other hand demagnetization temperature will be  lower if you subject the magnet to a strong opposite magnetic field such in a motor.
  • If the thickness of the magnet is bigger and  you will need a bigger magnetic field to start demagnetize it.

Temperature classification for neodymium magnets, N stays from Neo from .

  • N42           ≤80℃                                      magnet
  • N42M      ≤100℃
  • N42H       ≤120℃
  • N42SH     ≤150℃
  • N42UH    ≤180℃
  • N42EH     ≤200℃
  • N42VH    ≤230℃

Neodymium magnets needs a coating otherwise they will rust in contact with air.

The coatings can be: Nickel, Zinc, Phosphate, Epoxy, Gold and others.

 

Mathematical magnetic flux density analysis.

Next step is to run mathematical analysis in magnetic field to see if i have some areas with saturated magnetic field. We want to avoid core saturation. For this i used Finite Element Method Magnetics Tool A Windows finite element solver for 2D and axisymmetric magnetic, electrostatic, heat flow, and current flow problems with graphical pre- and post-processors brushless simulation FEMM motor simulationWe can observe that i have areas in pink color with to much magnetic flux, above 2Teslas, so i need to increase the thickness of the tooth to stay under 2 Teslas because the saturation of the lamination.

Hall sensor spacing mechanical angle calculation formula:

360*2/ 6* pole pairs number

6 is coming from 6 step commutation in the controller.

Example. 14 magnets motor means 7 pole pairs

So the resulting angle between two hall sensors is Hα=360*2/ 6* 7= 11,14 degree.

For 20 magnets motor mean 10 pole pairs.

resulting Hα= 360*2/6*10= 12 degrees

Multiple factors can have a huge difference in motor performance and efficiency:

This factors can be:

1. Maximum working frequency (depending on RPM and no. of poles). The frequency is calculated by next formula:

f= rps (motor rotation per second) x (nr. of poles/2). no.of poles is equal with no. of magnets.

or: f[hz]= Magnets nr. x rpm / 120

Example for 1000Rpm: the rps will be 1000rpm/60s = 16,66 then  f=16,22 x 40poles/2 will result in: f= 333.2Hz

Because the losses in the core lamination are increasing  with increase (non linear) in frequency we want to have a frequency as low as possible for max motor RPM.  For exampe for lamination grade M330-50 the losses at 50Hz and 1Tesla are 1,29W/kg but 132W/kg at 1000Hz.

2. Proper combination between slots and poles count.

3. Material properties and thickness of stator and rotor laminations.

4. Air gap thickness.

5. Magnets grade.

6. Current density.

7. Slot fill factor.

8. Cogging torque. A summary of techniques used for reducing cogging torque:

  • Skewing stator stack or magnets
  • Using fractional slots per pole
  • Modulating drive current waveform
  • Optimizing the magnet pole arc or width

    Very nice. I am working on a similar project but am having a difficult time finding a low volume source of electric (silicon) steel. Did you use this or regular sheet metal for you prototype? If you used electric steel, can you share where you sourced the material from? Thanks!

    • Berca Iulian says:

      Hello,

      I used electric silicon steel lamination. There is in Romania a factory that steel lamination.
      I took them from somebody else who was constructing large (MW size generators).
      So there is no place to buy like an online shop.

    Hi Iulian,
    I am just designing a 10kW motor for 100V and ca 30kV. In the Youtube I saw a calculator software for simulation the move/rotation and torque (not the FEMM). Can you let me know where to get it. I try to estimate best pole/mag combination. Another question regarding cooling. How do you thermally connect the core and the copper cooling tubes ? And… sorry..another one. You said you enforced with kevlar the magnets. Which strength did you use and how big does this make the airgap ? Sorry for so many question, but your work is very impressive and inspiring

  18. Jordan says:

    Hi Buddy, just an Idea I have but can’t realize it – missing work place. Think about the rotor space between the schaft and the magnets. Well, not place a modified by geometry an accumulating cells. What you win – a short wired reverse charging and a fast startup with less electrical losses. You will increase the weight of the DC unit but if implementig to a car this will be a good to keep weight on the wheel’s level. I know that my idea is not very efficient at the moment if using plump acc. Either if using Li- ones. But if we got more efficient acc cell, it will be a perfect solution to keep Acc and DC into one cage.

  19. Jordan says:

    and in addition to my last posting – if you revert the construction and put the magnets out and coling on the place of the rotor then placing a acc cells will looks more meaningful, right?

    For an electric motor bike of 130 kgs to travel in urban area, How much Kilo Watt BLDC Motor @ 48 Volts excitation is to be selected?
    Forces on motor cycle are
    1). rolling resistance force=120N
    2). Gradient resistance force= 0 N on flat road and 2800 N on 45 deg slope
    3). air drag force= 60N.
    The tractive force to drive the motor bike with around 80% is found to be
    – 7 KW on flat road

    Speed is assumed of 130kmph on flat road ( 0 slope) and 25 kmph on uphill gradient of 45 deg. The motor shaft is with no gears and no clutch. Bike rear wheel is directly driven by chain linked to motor shaft. The wheel diameter is 18″(457mm).

    Torque at motor bike wheel touching the road surface is

    τ (NM)=Force (N)*distance of the wheel centre to road ( mtrs.)
    =180*(18*25.4)/(2*1000)=41NM.
    This is on flat road at max.speed of 130kmph

    Hello iulian,

    Very impressive work. I appreciate it.

    I am an hobbyist. And i am in a plan to build a motor for a car.

    Would you be able to support or guide in designing and building the motor.

    Hi Iulian,

    I’m a high school student trying to make a similar project as to what you did but I am having trouble making an ESC for my motor, how do you power your motor?

  78. Siew says:

    Hi, from malaysia :> , your design look fantastic ! I visit your page because I want to DIY make a Electric outboard thruster for my boat, I cant find any high power motor for my needs, do you mind share your design with me so I can build my own :> I Think I can get everything to build this motor from local factory. I really hope I can build my own, can you email to me please :>

      Hi, the design not open source. Somebody copied the motor and made some wrong changes which made the motor to produce much less torque than the original design.
      We are putting it in to production, so you can buy it.

        I am in agriculture business and I would like to attach some DC motors 22kw to my pump 18kw.
        My pumps runs 1500 rpm and the other one on 2900rpm

        The DC motor will be used in a solar project. The idea is to connect the Solar Panels directly to the pump; in between I am planing to use brakers etc and a dry battery for the starting
        Do you have any experience in a similar project like this?
        And if so, what is the cost?
        Thank you

    i want to order one to test

  83. i like the motor, i want to order one.

    Nice: Would you people be interested in a non electric running type motor system.
    Using only permanent magnetic power this technology once built will start running without any outside power source. This system Can be developed from milliwatt to megawatt output.
    This technology conforms to the laws of thermodynamics.
    This technology is not available threw any website.

    Sir, I am in orgasm.
    I want everything from you to impress my stupid teachers and become another stupid ingineer.
    And then I would like to build myself a portable helicopter, but I need you to do it for me.

    We are too many, have to be best of them.

    So, sir, money no isuue. How much it cost ? But needs to be cheap.

  88. Tony Fernandes says:

    Hi,
    I’m developping an electric vehicle and it could be interesting to use an 45 KW BLDC motor as you have designed it.
    Can you tell me more about?
    Wath controller to use with and wath would be the cost of both, motor and controller.
    Thank you for reply.
    Best Regards
    Tony Fernandes

  89. Hi,

    I was browsing the open source motor movement and came upon your 45kw motor design and research blog. We’re looking for a high efficiency brushless motor for our formula sae baja project. I have to apologize, I couldn’t find your open source design schematics in your post. Is there any way you could forward us your design files? We don’t plan any alterations as your 200 Nm is more than sufficient for our vehicle mass and inclines we have to climb.

    Thanks,

    Sabine.
