Traction Motors Design & Multidisciplinary Optimization

Victoria Velavicius

Traction Motor play key role in the electric vehicle/hybrid electric vehicle (EV/HEV) development process. The design of a High-Performance e-Motor is a complex undertaking. Engineers have conflicting constraints to consider including efficiency, temperature, weight, size, and cost. To explore more ideas, better understand their designs and improve performance, Altair HyperWorks™ has a workflow to guide motor designers through an efficient process of Simulation-Driven Design. This analysis and optimization solution supports multi-disciplinary teamwork and reduces design times.
