“…Consequently, in EVs, it becomes feasible to enhance the applied torque on the wheel and design a machine with a broader CPSR. For example, in [28], it was noted that for a dump truck, the CPSR should be around 10:1. However, implementing a wide CPSR is not practical in Locomotive applications, where the CPSR typically ranges between 2 and 3.…”

This paper showcases a systematic procedure to design the most efficient re design of a commercially available induction machine to be used as a traction motor in an Electric Freight Locomotive for the rail journey from Tehran to Mashhad. Using Taguchi optimization, copper and aluminium wound versions of the machine are optimized for an 1870-ton load locomotive with a peak power of 1203kW. The driving cycle is summarized using the K-means clustering method to obtain representative points. Full details of the drive cycle and guiding rail adhesion modelling are given and subsequently used in a sequential multiphysics and multi-operation mode robust procedure which optimizes the geometry and cooling parameters whilst taking manufacturing tolerances into account. The paper thus presents a thorough comparative study of aluminium-based and copper-based designs to meet a realistic Electric Freight Locomotive specification. Results indicated that the proposed approach is effective in optimum and robust design of conventional and aluminium induction machines and can be applied to other machine types operating on other rail journeys. Switching to aluminium is one way of improving the recyclability of motors, but in the scenario considered here, results in a 1.1% reduction in efficiency over the driving cycle.

“…Thus, power converters [4,5], electrical motors [6] and generators [7], photovoltaic generation systems [8], and renewable energy as a whole [9] have received more attention and research activities. One of the results of the activity in this direction was the significant rise of electrical cars' market share [10,11], which in turn intensified the development in neighboring areas, which includes electric motor drives [12], batteries as well as technologies connected to them [13][14][15], power electronics, etc. [16].…”

In recent decades the market share of electrical cars has increased significantly, which has paved the way for the development of automotive electronics. Some of the most important parts of modern electrical vehicles are motor drives, which are used in car training and mechanization. Electrical drives are used in powertrains for traction, in air conditioning systems to cool cars and their parts, in doors for opening/closing as well as window movements, etc. The most popular motor type in electrical vehicles is synchronous motors with permanent magnets, which are compact and provide high torque. However, these motors require the development of control systems for proper operation. This system has to have the capacity to implement several state-of-the-art techniques, which can fully utilize motor potential, increase its efficiency, and decrease battery usage. One of these techniques is field-weakening, which overcomes speed limitations due to a lack of supply voltage and increases the motor’s speed operation range. This paper discusses the most popular approaches to field-weakening, including a new method proposed by the author. It considers both the pros and cons of each approach and provides recommendations for their usage. After that, this manuscript demonstrates the experimental results of each field-weakening technique obtained in the same motor drive, compares their performance, and discusses their strengths and weaknesses. Finally, the experimental part demonstrates that the proposed field-weakening approach demonstrates similar dynamics in load transients but provides 10 times less load to the microcontroller.
