Popis: The paper investigates and suggests a high-speed electric drivetrain combining a SiC inverter, a PMSM electric machine (EM) and a 3-stage parallel axis gearbox. To reduce cost, a modular structure is applied allowing for installing several drive units into the vehicle according to power demand. The developed modular drivetrain concept is suitable for low and high-performance vehicles. To downsize the EM, i.e. decreasing the torque, the gear ratio and the rotor speed is increased, allowing the same power but from smaller packaging. Increasing the gear ratio gives a reduced mass and size, which primarily decreases the cost of the EM. To meet both increased speed and modular installation, different transmission concepts have been rated which is more likely to fulfill the requirements. To address cooling and rotor stresses and keep efficiency at maximum, the permanent magnet synchronous motor with buried magnets and dry rotor is developed. The peak efficiency goes above 96% with specific torque density of 4.9 Nm/kg. To supply the high-speed motor high frequency switching silicon carbide (SiC) power electronics is adopted. The converter can deliver 140 A continuous AC with a semiconductor switching frequency of 20 kHz.
