Abstract:This research proposes a novel cooling system to minimize the external rotor type of electric motor temperature by installing fan blades (wafters) on the inner housing of the electric motor. Fan blades (wafters) are made by printing using 3D printer technology and using polylactic acid (PLA) as the material. Wafters are then installed on an in-wheel motor with a power of 1500 W, having 48 poles and 52 slots. The study included thermal simulation and experimental techniques to ascertain how fan blades (wafters)… Show more
