  • Abstract
    This work presents modeling and simulation method to evaluate performance of light traction motors. This method is well adapted to study permanent magnet brushed and brushless DC motor drives, as it presents a general modeling approach for the commutator and armature of permanent magnet synchronous machines. Two types of commercial motor drives for electric scooters are analyzed and compared.
