Brushless Permanent Magnet Motor Design,2 Ed

Duane C. Hanselman, "Brushless Permanent Magnet Motor Design,2 Ed"
Magna Physics Pub | 2006 | ISBN: 1881855155 | 392 pages | PDF | 61,7 MB

Written for electrical, electronics, and mechanical engineers responsible for designing and specifying motors, the book provides details of brushless DC and synchronous motors, as well as both radial and axial motor topologies. Beginning with a discussion of the fundamentals of generic motor design, it logically progresses to a set of more advanced, yet easily understandable, concepts for designing brushless permanent-magnet motors. In addition, the author fully explains techniques for magnetic modeling and circuit analysis, shows how magnetic circuit analysis applies to motor design, describes all major aspects of motor operation and design in simple mathematical terms, develops rigourous design equations for radial flux and axial flux motors, and illustrates basic motor drive schemes. All common motor design terms are clearly defined and a wealth of charts, tables and equations are included.


Summary: This book's strength is its simplicity
Rating: 5

This book presents an excellent overview of interior-rotor brushless motor design. I tend to prefer textbooks that aim to build intuition over cookbook-style handbooks or excessively-mathematical formulations. Math is a language to express physical reality, some books act like math itself constitutes that reality.

Hence, this book's strength is its simplicity. Starting from the basics - short and open magnetic circuits with a single permanent magnet, then on to the simple case of a single wire moving through a field - Hanselman builds up to a full discussion of pole and tooth count, dimensions, and windings. He discusses tradeoffs inherent in design, and how to maximize efficiency. The one area I think could use a little elaboration in a future edition would be the section on motor constant (torque / losses), and a distillation of the design rules in one place. Right now there are useful nuggets scattered around the book, combining them all in one section at the end would help.

So, not the most comprehensive or the most mathematically rigorous, but extremely helpful for building intuition.


Summary: Exactly what I was looking for !

Thank to persons like Duane Hanselman
I had real pleasure reading and understanding this book. (even if I dont grasp more than 50%)
Fast shipping
Very informative
The work done there is excellent at making us understanding better this subject.
There is enough material, for a novice, to design a good motor.
You still need a good school background event if it takes you from the beginning.
I am designing one now for fun but still hope to get great efficiency and power density.
