    I would love to know how you increased motor speed and torque. Could you explain more on this? And how your motor design is different?

    • @Nathan0A
      @Nathan0A 4 года назад +32

      There are only two theoretical limits to the power output of an electric motor if you can supply it with unlimited and perfectly phase-aligned electric current, the permanent magnet flux and heat. Increasing max torque is done by strengthening permanent magnet flux, strengthening the coils mechanical binding to motor rotor/cage, as well as increasing the current capability of the inverters that supply AC current to the motor. Increasing power is done by reducing back-emf (electrical resistance inside the motor that grows with speed) and/or providing better cooling for the motor coils. The electron Rocket has 1MW electric motor that's just the size of a coke can because they use cryogenic rocket propellant to keep the motor cool.
      This is incredible engineering, but the purpose of such a car is extremely limited due to the weight and energy capacity of the batteries.

    • @Nathan0A
      @Nathan0A 3 года назад +7

      ​@Akmol Ali The maximum torque is not really limited by the cooling like the maximum continuous power is limited by cooling. Maximum torque is limited by strength of the magnets, motor construction, and current capacity of the inverter/motor driving circuit. You can create an electric motor with incredible torque but not much power with little cooling. The electron rocket 1MW motor is done in a small footrpint by using very high RPM and high continuous torque. Power = torque/rpm

      @@Nathan0A Also silver wire winding would help little bit (31% less heat generated for same winding volume, capacity for power to go up) if you want to save weight, you might opt for copper coated Alu wire, saves ton of weight, but they have to model for heat dissipation and removal (adds heat due to the 1.66x higher resistance), coolant flow is impressive, i don't think there would be a problem in heat removal from flow perspective, question is of in/out temps (capability of that cooling circuit)...

    I'd put that 1MW baby into Misha's Golf 4. After all he needs that torque the most tho he also needs the range and I'm not sure where a battery pack would fit in that car. 800pcs of 21700 cells would take a lot of space + cooling and all the required rads. Maybe converting it to RWD and using the space under the hood for cells and cooling? It would require a donor car so that he can make the trips and I'm not sure if Golf 4 is the best choice after all. But it would be cool :P
    Also 14:04 I am interested into hardware development but I don't have the required pappers (school) to do so :P
    Only 3 years of Electonic-Mechanic @ESS (Varaždin) and related to car industry close to 2 years of working @Dürr factory in Bietigheim-Bissingen so the only use I could be of is fixing their robots since I pretty much know them inside out (especially the latest 3rd gen). But you're probably outsourcing that or doing it by hand since it's still only 250ish cars you're going to make.
    Also why the reupload? I didn't notice any changes.

    In comparison with a two speed gearbox, does a single speed gearbox reduce efficiency at higher speeds or did you managed a way around that issue?

    • @BoonBreyne
      @BoonBreyne 3 года назад

      Depends a bit if your question is hinging on vehicle range or heat losses? Perhaps a question to ask is this: you know the efficiency is only going to drop at pretty high speeds. Probably 250,300+ kph. Is it dramatic to have a small vehicle range reduction at blasting high speeds or it that something a customer could live with? Regarding heat losses, that might very well be an issue. As Nathan L. writes in the top comment of this section, cooling probably played a key role in pushing that available torque of the motor beyond what they had dared so far.

    Haha, Burn rubber - Not Gas! Well, the design is really beautiful. Das Auto Begeistert won't be left unattended when it comes to loving the engine. The feeling that we get after opening the hood of an ICE. So majorly, it's a more RWD-centric, which makes it easier for drifting (over-steering characters).
    The timed know-how was amazing, great game! Thanks for the constant updates on the videos giving insight into the Engineering and company and kind of everything.
    There are studies, at least what I did for the integration of all the coolant, however the remark you made was exactly my remark during the seminar --- different coolant temperature and flows and here comes the integration problem for 1 cooling system to bring down the weight.
    Hahaa, of course --- can't be slower at all!
    Wow, that's phenomenal - 60 kilos reduction and still better, re-designing for a better job

    Hi Mate, I would actually use the front drivetrain unit rather than the rear one. Would drop it into a Lotus Exige and pair it with a small battery custom built for high discharge rates to allow for high performance without being too heavy. I believe that there might be a sweet spot where lightweight will allow for reasonable range and performance without having to build a very heavy car. Oh and obviously would try to include fast charging, my EV experience teached me that small range can be offset by that.

    Question: How did you manage to increase the Torque from the first spec to the second one with 900Nm? When you say in the same package that must mean there was not much room of making the active parts bigger. So I guess it also involved exotic materials like cobalt iron ? The bump in speed with a diffrent rotor banding since you said surface mounted PM‘s ? Or was it just an Inverter thing which now pumps more amps into the motor with a raise of voltage for additional speed and power?

    Mate - an idea for cash flow, and leveraging the EV rampup, would be to sell motor/gearbox assemblies to us DIY guys via your online store, maybe even have OEMs pick up on them as well. Add a 11:1 or so option for gearbox ratio as well (which I think you should do for the C2, anyway, for street/dragstrip drivers), so we can wreck your projected 0-100 times :-)

    I would put the 1MW axle in my 2005 BMW 330ci ZHP so that it’s timeless design could live on into the future. Of course I will enjoy the car for many years to come.

    This is cool and I love the Rimac videos.
    But can someone explain why electric car companies like quoting power at the motor (Which is fine) but then like to quote the torque at the wheels?

    You should put the C2 power train into an e30 BMW. Using all of your knowledge from developing your new hypercar to create the ultimate classic-modern BMW.

    Answer to the question from the end of the video - I guess this drive could fit in a VW T1 / T2 (rear-wheel drive only) and so the craziest drifting machine / dragster on the globe could be created. Best regards from Austria

    What would be price for rear axle inverters+motors if someone would like to buy say 100 of them? Just curious, ofcourse it would be silly on your behalf to sell them for your competition reverse engineer it.

    You asked for ideas of what else you could put this motor unit in. Why not build a couple of killer SUV's; one using two axles and 4 motors, and then a monster 6x6 with 6 motors! That would be completely OTT!!

    Interesting how Tesla went through similar developments with their original Roadster, trying a two speed gearbox but ending up with a single speed and boosting motor/inverter performance.

    How are you able to pump 1000A of current through what I assume is 2/0 cable for the rear motors? Is that the continuous rating or peak? What does the power distribution look like coming from the battery?

    • @ZegaracRobert
      @ZegaracRobert 3 года назад

      Teflon or silicone insulation? Air cooling? i wonder also, probably peak, your likelihood of dying in vehicle goes exponential with time at those power levels! So i assume peak.

      Zegarac Robert for the regular vehicle owner and emergency personnel the chance of electrocution should be relatively low. I’d assume all EV manufacturers incorporate some forms of Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) in their pack where any high voltage that is detected on the chassis or low voltage ground either blows a pyrotechnic fuse or disconnect the main battery contactors. When I did FSAE Electric, we were required to put contactors both on the positive and negative terminals inside the battery box and use a ground fault board from Bender. Once the battery box was closed there is no way to get power out without everything on the safety circuit being happy.

      @@ryanmccawley5467 Ryan, you missed all the game entirely! If you are pushing 1MW+ what is your speed? 200mph-300mph, what are the odds of dying at those speeds compare to the normal speeds. Dont just think oh i can do that forever in a strait line, do you know how fast tires are wearing at those speeds, what is chance of tire failure?, and what happens when tire fails at those speeds... I was not thinking on electrical issues AT ALL

    • @ryanmccawley5467
      @ryanmccawley5467 3 года назад

      Zegarac Robert, Zegarac Robert It was a little unclear what you meant so I made an educated guess. The Rimac concept 2 has a top speed of 258mph. ICE cars go fast too so risk of death at those speeds arnt limited to EVs. Also, that is why there are speed limits. The real difference is EVs make acceleration a lot more accessible. Speed won’t wear tires nearly as quickly as acceleration, deceleration and cornering. Although acceleration is faster in EVs, deceleration due to braking is still quicker which is equal between IEC and EVs. There may be increased wear on an EVs tires but that is why there is regular maintenance to check those things. One benefit of EVs is torque vectoring and traction control allows for greater control of the vehicle potentially decreasing deaths compared to an IEC vehicle

      @@ryanmccawley5467 Well due to the "astronomical" losses at those speeds tire applies lots of torque constantly, (like accelerating all the time) and thus tire wear @max speed is massive, for bugatti veyron the number was ridiculous, don't remember the numbers right now but that was my point, that risks create bottlenecks elsewhere that pretty much determine how long you are going to use drive system @max power at any given time...and yes i did not limit my thinking to EV's, it works for any supercar...
