Abstract
Electric vehicles (EVs) are now rapidly emerging throughout the world. Due to high carbon emission by internal combustion engines (ICEs), EVs are being considered as a strong alternative to it. An auto-rickshaw is one of the very important and common modes of transportation in India. Due to the rising prices of petrol and diesel and emissions from ICE based auto-rickshaw, an E-Rickshaw is the best alternative. In this paper, various motors for E-Rickshaw are investigated and the performance comparison between the selected motors is presented. Three motors i.e., spoke-type (ST) permanent magnet (PM) brushless dc (BLDC) motor, magnet-less synchronous reluctance motor (SyRM) and magnet-assisted SyRM are compared using magnetic equivalent circuit (MEC) analysis. Further, 2-D FEA (Finite Element Analysis) is carried out and the results are presented.
