چکیده
In this paper, electro-magnetic design and thermal analysis of wheel hub motors, incorporated into the hub of a wheel and driven it directly, of electric vehicles were performed by using analytical and CFD methods. Since thermal management impacts the continuous power capability of electric machines, thermal analysis coupled electro-magnetic analysis are needed to reduce size and improve its performance. Mapping process for geometries and heat losses of rotor and stator was carried out separately and automatically with transfer of values form analytical code, electro-magnetic software to CFD code, STAR-CCM.
