Özet
This study presents the design, modeling, and prototyping of an external rotor permanent magnet synchronous motor (ER-PMSM) specifically for elevator traction systems. The external rotor design aims to surpass the efficiency of conventional inner rotor gearless elevator traction motors. A commercially available 4 kW inner rotor permanent magnet synchronous motor (IR-PMSM) was selected for comparative analysis. Critical parameters, including stator tooth tip thickness, slot tip radius, slot height, stator yoke height, stator tooth thickness, and the number of turns per phase, were optimized to enhance efficiency. The artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm was utilized for the first time to determine the optimal configuration of an external rotor PMSM. The prototype was fabricated and subjected to rigorous testing using a dedicated electrical motor test setup. Comparative results demonstrated a significant improvement in efficiency for the ER-PMSM over the IR-PMSM, with the efficiency increasing from 72.5% to 84.67% at nominal operating conditions.
