This paper discusses the rotating analysis for 18-slot/16-pole Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) using Finite Element Method. The PMSM is applied for Light Electric Vehicle (LEV) which has about 200 kg net mass and maximum velocity of 30 km/h. The motor is located in the wheels of the LEV. T...
