| Title | Development of High-Power-Density Permanent Magnet Motor for Marine Propulsion |
| Summary | Brief Description and Key Tasks: This project focuses on designing a high-power-density permanent magnet motor (PMM) for marine propulsion applications. Compared to conventional motors, the proposed design aims to achieve higher efficiency, compact size, and improved torque density, which are crucial for electric ships and unmanned surface vehicles (USVs). Key tasks: 1. Literature review on high-power-density PMM designs for marine applications. 2. Selection of an appropriate motor topology (axial-flux or radial-flux) for compact and high-torque-density operation. 3. Electromagnetic optimization using finite element analysis (FEA) to improve efficiency and torque performance. 4. Evaluation of losses and thermal performance under marine operating conditions. 5. Simulation and performance validation under different loading conditions. |
