This Ev Powertrain Engineering eBook from 3D-LABS is written for engineers and students who want a clear, practical reference they can apply immediately.
EV Powertrain Engineering — From Parts to Performance covers PMSM traction motor design, SiC inverter topology, single-speed reducer gear design, and drive-cycle simulation to verify range, peak power, and thermal limits.
What standards does this book reference?
IEC 60034-30-1:2014 (IE motor efficiency classes), IEEE 1515-2000 (EV drivetrain), AIS-156 (EV testing India), and UNECE Regulation 100 Rev 3 (EV safety).
What PMSM torque formula is used?
T = (3/2)*p*(lambda_d*i_q – lambda_q*i_d), where p is pole pairs, lambda are d/q flux linkages (Wb), i are d/q currents (A). Field weakening: i_d = -lambda_f/L_d above base speed. Target: >=5 kNm/m3 torque density (Tesla Model 3 front motor: 5.2 kNm/m3).
What single-speed reducer design is covered?
Helical gear pair: ratio i = 7-12, face width b = (8-12)*m_n, module m_n = 2-4 mm. Safety factors: S_H >= 1.2 (pitting) and S_F >= 1.4 (bending) per AGMA 2001-D04/ISO 6336:2019. Gear mesh efficiency: 98.5-99%.
