Abstract :
In this paper, a generalized procedure for designing a Permanent Magnet Brushless DC motor (PMBLDCM) based on design equations is presented. The formulated algorithm can provide a design solution either dependent variables or independent variables are available. A step by step procedure of the design validation and analysis using the MagNet 7.1.1 software is illustrated. The main attention is dedicated to exploit the MagNet 7.1.1 software as a teaching material to enable the fundamental design of PMBLDCM with interactive screen shots. The design equations and results such as Projected 3D views, Flux patterns and Cogging torque are presented for 27 slots, 8 pole and 0.75kW PMBLDCM.
