Designing Efficient Electric Motors with COMSOL Multiphysics - Archived

In the global mobility industry, the shift toward developing electric-powered transport has created a need for an agile approach in the R&D of electric motors. Multiphysics simulation reduces the need for physical prototyping, enabling engineers to perform quick iterations at a fraction of the typical cost. In addition, simulation makes it possible to obtain accurate results by combining the different physics phenomena that occur when a motor is running into a single model.

Tune into this webinar to explore the power of simulation and see how to design high-performance electric motors. The webinar includes a live demonstration using the COMSOL Multiphysics® software and will conclude with a Q&A session.

We will discuss:

• How to model permanent magnet motors, induction motors, and linear motors
• How to combine different physical effects to model phenomena such as structural stresses, rotor-induced vibrations, noise emission, and temperature rise due to power dissipation
• How to examine and optimize parameters influencing motor efficiency, such as rotor torque as well as iron and copper losses, including the effects of temperature rise
• How simulation can help engineers design high-performance motors through multivariable optimization in a time- and cost-efficient manner
