Axial Flux

Electricmotoraxial.png

  • Dual rotor 500W motor with controller. Best starting point for a motor. - [1]
    • Most complete plans
    • has 8 kW version as well
  • Late 2018, TU Delft students on axial flux coreless - [2]
  • John Reimers - early 2019 - McMaster U grad student - [3]
  • French student project - no plans - [4]
  • 100W, about 1 in lb torque - 7000 RPM - so 70 RPM geardown gets you 100 in lb. Comparable to current motors.
  • 260g
  • Not bad.

Axial with HalBach Array

Radial Flux

Halbach PMDC

  • MakeSEA 600W motor - [6]. MakeSEA 40 and 90W - 0.06 peak Nm torque - about 70% efficiency. MakeSEA 60W -[7]
  • Testing on an ultralight aircraft with 600W motor - [8]
  • French project - radial motor - .14 Nm torque - 100W - [9]
  • Small Halbach array generator - 7W per 1000 rpm - [10]

PMDC

Linear

Simple BLDC Outrunner

PCB Motor

3 Phase BLDC Simple Jet Motor

  • Magnets + coils. Doea lack of a magnetic core make it very inefficient, or can this do well upon geardown? High speed geardown is not easy, though. [15]
  • Isn't this a ducted fan, not a pule, turbo, or ram jet etc?

Alternator - Axial

  • Decent at low speed - [16]
