Purpose Herein is reported an application of life cycle analysis (LCA), using the Methodology for the Ecodesign of Energy Using Products (MEEUP), in order to assess the influence of some design parameters in the environmental ...

The prediction of switched reluctance motor (SRM) performance requires knowledge of core losses. However, the calculation of iron losses in SRM is especially complex first because the flux waveforms are nonsinusoidal and ...

The world market of e-scooter is expected to experiment an increase of 15% in Western Europe between 2015 and 2025. In order to push this growth it is needed to develop new low-cost more efficient and reliable drives with ...

In this paper a new type of hybrid reluctance actuator is presented. This linear hybrid reluctance actuator is a two phase double sided actuator in which the stator is composed by four normalized U cores, each with a coil ...

In this paper a novel type of hybrid reluctance motor drive is presented. This new motor is characterized by a stator formed by a combination of independent magnetic structures, each one composed of an electromagnet, the ...

Outside-spin brushless D.C. motors are an alternative to conventional D.C. brush permanent magnet motors, especially in applications that require low power and costs and in which high inertia effects are advantageous. This ...

This paper shows the results obtained from the study on the variables that have the greatest influence on the decision to replace three-phase induction motors, without a defined efficiency class and installed in industrial ...

Electric vehicles are the only alternative for a clean, efficient and environmentally friendly urban transport system. With the increasing interest in electric drives for electric vehicle propulsion. This paper first tries ...
