Combining the advantages of permanent magnet and induction motors, new synchronous reluctance motors (SynRM) offer potentially breakthrough technology for variable speed drive (VSD) and motor packages ...

• Rotors made from copper conduct electrical current better than aluminum, thus run cooler with more efficiency. • The process of die casting copper has become economical thanks to recent advances in ...

A synchronous and synchronous motors are the two main categories of ac motors. The induction motor is a common form of asynchronous motor and is basically an ac transformer with a rotating secondary.

Yasa’s yokeless dual-rotor motor design with a threefold power-density gain, points toward lighter, more efficient drivetrains.

BMW has a novel way to hold the magnets in place in an axial flux motor, with an eye toward efficiency and long-term durability. Being a central part of the motor core, rotor design is critical to ...

Since AC induction motors have been established as the preferred choice for industrial motors and the need for reduced power in all aspects of design is ever present, the efficiency of these motors is ...

Early incarnations of the electric motor first appeared in the 1740s through the work of Scottish Benedictine monk and scientist, Andrew Gordon. Other scientists such as Michael Faraday and Joseph ...
