What are the most important dimensions for switched and synchronous reluctance motors? The same ones as for all motors, luckily – click for details!
A.I. and Electrical Machines
Hypehypehypehypehypehypehypehypehype Alright, let’s be serious. Interest in machine learning is booming. (And I refuse to use the term artificial intelligence or AI – there’s nothing intelligent in being able to do a very tightly defined task quite well). Anyways, I’ve gotten some…
SRM vs SynRM Performance Basics
Which one is better – an SRM or a SynRM? You won’t find the answer here, but you’ll get some tools to make the decision yourself.
Optimization of an e-bike drivetrain
My guest post at Revonte.com covers the optimization of an e-bike powertrain: the benefits of a CVT transmission, along with other basic principles.
Switched and Synchronous Reluctance Machines
Ever wondered what switched and synchronous reluctance machines are? Well, this post here covers the basics – how they work and where they differ.
What are BLDC motors?
What are BLDC motors? And how do they differ from AC motors? Why do people keep using such contradictory terms and confusing us?
Induced eddy currents in sheet – SMEKlib example
Video of induced eddy currents in a lamination steel sheet – plus how they can be computed. There’s a SMEKlib example too for you to try!
Maglev Systems – How to model them analytically?
Maglev – magnetic levitation – systems can be quite different from electric motors. So how to model them without time-consuming 3D simulations?
Poynting vector and motor design
The Poyinting vector is quite rarely used in electric motor design. However, this underutilized tool can be extremely useful in the right hands.
Matlab versus Python – in numerical analysis
Matlab and Python are both popular languages, but which one is better? You won’t find an explicit answer here, but a few factors to consider.
