Simulation of a Combined Radial-Axial Flux Permanent Magnet Motor

- Traditionally, electric motors are either radial-flux or axial-flux; obviously, each configuration has its own pro and cons. To take advantage of both configurations, a hybrid combined radial-axial (RADAX) flux motor configuration has been suggested by several authors. A RADAX motor combines a radial flux motor with one or more axial flux motor, within the same motor housing. RADAX motor has been reported to have several advantages, including enhanced efficiency in low speed, improved volume density and mission capability, a better fault tolerance, and low power operating modes. The RADAX technology is recommended for applications that require high volume density and for vehicles spending a substantial amount of time idling or other low-speed actions. Nevertheless, designing and optimizing a RADAX flux motor is a formidable undertaking that requires not only profound motor design experience but also the best-in-class motor software tools.
To contribute to the understanding of this new and promising technology, we used our virtual prototyping design motor software, EMS, to study and simulate a RADAX flux motor, presented in the journal Energies 20201. In this webinar, we will show you step-by-step how EMS is used to simulate a RADAX flux permanent magnet machine with Halbach-array permanent magnets. We will conclude the webinar by giving you the findings of the author as well as our findings and recommendations.
Nice work .Thank you .
You can get rid of cogging torque and increase efficiency and also lower the eddy currents by using air coil - coreless stator or magnet wire would around something that's not containing steel to make up the magnetic coils.
I can not imagine yet how cool down this motor.
How about if the lamination are skewed - set an angle to of set the cogging torque .?
Thank you for your interest. For more information about our software or simulation model, please contact us at: www.emworks.com/contact.
Our sales representative will reach out to you shortly and connect you with the appropriate application engineer.
Didn’t that Swedish company”Koenigsgg” develope something like this? It’s suppose to be Uber compact but powerful achieving its performance characteristics from those of each type of electric motor. I’m fairly certain it’s out of R&D phase and soon to be installed in one of there “Mega Cars”.
Aside from that, your video was well made and quite watchable. It was a bit wordy and opinionated, at times, but who isn’t (as evidenced by this comment). Thanks for the video and keep up the good work.
You are right but hyper car is just a phase of R&D
Nothing large scale commercial yet.
This is like saying carbon fiber is commercial today which is not true but carbon fiber is used in hyper car industry
is there any chance we could run the radax motor simulation with specifications from a high end motor controller
i am sure these motors will absolutely dominate as normal direct drive hub motors dont get as high rpms as we want as they try get that ballance of rpm and torque we may not even need magnets on the side covers either we could use something similar to car altinator how they bend the magnetic forcearound

think im going to give this software a try ,think they call these motors with both axial and radial flux ,Transverse flux.So transverse flux with a Halbach magnet array this has got to be a interesting motor and not to hard to make id think just time consumingquestion is what controller would be required
actually some of the latest generation VESC based controllers should be able to run it but would need a rotary encoder or hall sensor array
Hi! Thank you for reaching out! You can use Field-Oriented Control (FOC) with a Digital Signal Processor (DSP) for the transverse flux motor. This setup allows for smooth operation and precise control of torque and speed. You'll also need current sensors for phase current measurement, feedback mechanisms like encoders or Hall Effect sensors for rotor position sensing, and a suitable inverter to convert DC to three-phase AC voltage.
@@EMWorksInc yes thanks very much im looking at ordering 2 of the STR-500 Vesc controllers with vesc express for this project ,ill either be using samsung 30q cells or Molie cells in novac dilectric cooling solution
im pretty sure i need the 2 controllers as from what i gather the radial and axial aspects are slightly out of sync with eachother
We are waiting EESM motor SW ..
Koenigsegg develoved this kind of Motor already with 335 Hp.
Duh, sorry. Just saw the other comments.
