Development of Liquid Cooled BLDC Motor

Brushless Direct Current (BLDC) Motor is an electromagnetic device that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. BLDC motor is a type of motor used in electric cars and does not need brush for magnetic field replacement (commutation), but is carried out electronically commutated. In BLDC motor, temperature in the motor play important role on motor performance such as maximum power and efficiency. In this research the development of liquid cooling of BLDC motor is described. Development starts from the design, computation using software and the realization of the motor design results. The construction of a brushless DC motor is very similar to that of an ac motor, known as permanent magnet synchronous motor. The stator consisting of a core and copper windings forming a core and armature unit. There are 2 identical stators to form the BLDC.
