The in-wheel motor (IWM) is a promising advancement in electric vehicle propulsion since it offers greater packaging efficiency and torque vectoring capabilities than a chassis-mounted motor. However, the increased unsprung mass degrades the vehicle dynamics by increasing body vertical acceleration (BVA) and tyre dynamic load (TDL), worsening ride comfort and road-holding respectively. Another important consideration is magnetic gap deformation (MGD), which results from the deflection between the motor stator and rotor. Reducing MGD improves the motor reliability and longevity. This paper addresses these issues by incorporating inerters into an existing IWM model. They are incorporated into the strut and bushes to control BVA, TDL and MGD. The system optimised for MGD resulted in a deflection reduction of over 98% without compromising performance of the other indices. Optimising the strut and bushes for BVA and TDL reduced them by 20% and 9% respectively without degrading MGD. A sensitivity analysis of the results is presented. Here the damping and inertance values are varied by 20% from the optimum, and the resulting performance still improves upon the default. It is concluded that there are significant potential improvements where inerters are included in an in-wheel motor system. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
