A brushless DC motor with permanent magnets and three phase coil excitation
Brushless DC motor
A brushless DC motor with permanent magnets and three phase coil excitation.
Problem Type:
Plane problem of DC magnetics.
Geometry:

Axial length of the motor is 40 mm.
The four magnets are made of Samarium-Cobalt with relative permeability of 1.154 and coercive force of 550000 A/m. The current densities for the coil slots are as follows:
1,300,000 A/m2 on R+, -1,300,000 A/m2 on R-,
1,300,000 A/m2 on S+, -1,300,000 A/m2 on S-,
and zero on T+ and T-.
The inner and outer frames are made of Cobalt-Nickel-Copper-Iron alloy. The B-H curve for the Cobalt-Nickel-Copper-Iron alloy:
