Types of Electric motors used in EVs.
BY AFZAL YOUSAF Electric motors are the main motive source of EVs. Working together with batteries, motor converts electrical energy into rotational energy and then into mechanical movement in wheels. Electric motor is usually referred as the "Heart" of the electric vehicle and it should have certain features to make it suitable for e mobility. As an ev enthusiasts and professional, when we look at the specifications of EVs, we find different types of motors are used like BLDC. PMSM, ACIM etc. In this article you can find the different types of motors used in EV. Types of motors used in EVs are following:- Direct current motor (DC) Brushless Direct current motor (BLDC) Alternate current Induction motor (ACIM) Permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) Swithched reluctance motor (SRM) DC MOTOR DC Motor is an electric motor working on Direct current and converts it into mechanical energy. Main parts of the DC Motor are Stator, Rotor, Yoke, Poles, Stator Winding, Armature Wind...
