Hello,
I want to design an electric motor for the use inside an electric vehicle. The motor can only be run at a maximum line current and maximum line-to-line voltage.
Within FluxMotor I could run the Efficiency map test and define the maximum electric values as input parameters. At the end, I got the machine performance. Right now I am mostly interested in the base point.
For a deeper understanding of the motor I used the the workingpoint - sine wave test with the accurate mode since it will calculate the machine performance with the help of a FEM Flux Model. For this, I have to define different input parameters.
For the workingpoint test I have to define the following input values
- maximum line current
- control angle
- speed
I used the data given from the efficiency map test calculation for this test. The data was according to the base point. The thermal conditions were same for each test. At the end of the working point test, I could see that the line-to-line voltage is now exceeding my initial line-to-line voltage which is given for the performance mapping test.
My questions:
- Which test accurately give me information about the base point performance for a maximum line current and line-to-line voltage? Is it the data sheet test?
- Why is the line-to-line voltage different between the performance mapping test and working point test?
