Popis: The results of experimental research and thermal analysis of several types of cooling of brushless electric motors with nominal power 10-12kW (PMAC), suitable for “light” EV/HEV vehicles are presented in the research paper. The studied motors have permanent magnets, a double stator and an axial magnetic flux with air or liquid cooling. The Motor-CAD software performed the presented thermal analysis. The experimental study was made on the basis of precision results, obtained from the measurement of process temperatures during operation in a real-world environment. For this purpose, the electric motors were equipped with a number of thermocouples with which the temperatures are measured. The precise measurement and recording of the heat flux temperatures is performed using LabVIEW software. The calculations from the thermal analysis coincide with the experimental results and can be used to predict the heat fluxes in different designs and types of cooling systems. The possibilities for improving the cooling and power of standard PMAC electric motors with double stators have been studied and analyzed.
