چکیده
Brushless Direct current (BLDC) motors are gaining attention these days in many applications because of their simplicity in its control and high power density. Due to their usage many advances are taking place in field of automobiles in general and locomotives in particular. To have an effective control over the locomotive it is desirable to have control over starting, running and braking of a bldc drive. This paper mainly describes about different types of braking that can be applied to a bldc drive used in locomotives. Various braking methods are introduced and described. The braking of bldc motor is simulated in MATLAB/Simulink. The simulation results are presented and comparative study is made.
