Multidisciplinary Optimization of an Electric Motor for an Automobile and Extension to a Model-based Systems Engineering Approach
Designing a modern electric motor for an electrified automobile requires striking the perfect balance between cost, weight, and performance. From a modeling and simulation standpoint, predicting the overall performance of the motor requires multiple multidisciplinary analyses, including electromagnetic, thermal, and stress analyses.
The powerful integration capabilities of Ansys ModelCenter® software provide engineers with the ability to quickly build automated multidisciplinary workflows. In this example, ModelCenter software was used to solve the multidisciplinary problem of the design of an electric motor for an automobile and brought together electromagnetic, thermal, and structural performance criteria in a single workflow so that all the performance aspects and constraints can be simultaneously considered to design an efficient motor.
