Abstract :
In this paper we describe a software tool for quick design of electric motors. The main features of this tool are ease to use, intuitive and suitable for calculation. We describe two different approaches, the first is a “Discrete Scanning” of a defined number of configurations, the second is a “Continuous Scanning” where there´s an optimization algorithm. Both approaches follow the “Black Box” idea, where the user defines the design variables and observes the results. The internal working between algorithm and computation software is hidden.
