Abstract:This study investigates the design an electric motor propelling hubless wheel mounted on an electric bicycle (e-bike) by numerical analysis. The motor is part of an in-wheel system that uses a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) to drive the hubless wheel. This paper presents an optimized PMSM design and compares various torque-related parameters, such as cogging torque, cogging torque total harmonic distortion (THD), and ripple torque. The comparison is based on a motor design that examines the effect o… Show more
