Design of Multi Phase In-Wheel Axial Flux Permanent Magnet Motor for Electric Vehicles

This paper presents a new design of five phase in-wheel axial flux double outer rotor single double side inner rotor permanent magnet motor architecture which offers better torque and power characteristics and matches with the orientation of the general motor wheel such that it can be directly mounted in-wheel. This paper mainly concerns about the torque and power characteristics with the modeled speed variations of the electric vehicles. Also its increased overall efficiency when used with the electric vehicle without the usage of drive chain is addressed
