Driving characteristics of anti-directional-twin-rotary motor on electric vehicle simulator

An Anti-Directional-Twin-Rotary Motor (ADTR-motor for abbreviation) were tested on an Electric Vehicle (EV for abbreviation) simulator, which behaves as if the ADTR-motor were installed in an EV, and was driven in the EV driving conditions. The ADTR-motor has the novel motor structure suitable for EV drives, in which the stator in the conventional motor was reformed to be movable, and the stator (outer rotor) rotates in the anti-direction of a rotor in the conventional motor(inner rotor). Several motor structures of ADTR-motor are considerable: permanent magnet (pm for abbreviation) type, induction motor (im for abbreviation) type and so on. In this paper, a driving characteristics of a pm type ADTR-motor on the EV simulator was measured and compared with the computer simulations using an EV simulator model.
