Overview of Electric Scooter operating on Synchronous Reluctance Motor (SynRM)

Abstract

this paper deals in research and review of a 3-phase motor inverter to run a designed synchronous reluctance motor which would be used in electric scooters. The synchronous reluctance motor falls in the category of rare earth free magnet motors, yet provides better efficiency and gives straight competition to other AC and DC motors. It also includes designing of swappable battery packs for mobility purposes which offers easy removal and installation of batteries. All the major components which are to be use in electric scooter powertrain have been discussed here.
