    Brushless DC motor life expectancy

    Can anyone recommend me a way to calculate Mean Time Between Repair (MTBF) of BLDC motor. Is there a way of estimating it without the help of the manufacturer? The engine specs are: 2 poles 21 winding inrunner 1:4.4 transmission 76.1 mm length 27.6 mm diameter 15 Ampere 15 volt max rpm 60k...

    Brushless DC engine starting torque

    Can I rely on saying that the starting torque of a BLDC engine is the multiple I_max*Kt . I find it problematic because I am not sure BLDC controllers are entirely predictable I would be glad for some help..

    Starting Torque of a Brushless DC engine

    Is there anyway of predicting what will be the starting torque of a BLDC motor (BRUSHLESS DC MOTOR) without asking the manufacturer? Can I know the starting torque by consulting the manufacturer of the BLDC motor controller?

    Stall torque - BLDC

    Looking on a BLDC motor catalog for motors with the same iron there are different motor windings but similar maximum power ratings. Other than that I know the operating current, no load current, armature resistance, terminal voltage 1. Just to be sure since it has a permanent magnet the no load...

    BLDC motor constants

    I have catalog specs for a brushless DC motor saying [I_0] no load current @ 8.4V = 3.84[amp] [R_a] = 0.0063 Continuous Current = 45 Amp No. Winding = 6 Voltage= 14.8 - 18.5 max power = 700Watt (15 Sec) Kv=5000RPM/Volt 1. Is it possible to find the motor torque constant with the help of...

    BLDC and odd vs. even number of poles

    A question that boggles me about BLDC poles is that I've noticed some cases of BLDC's with odd numbered poles like 9 for example, Aren't they supposed to come in pairs so the flux can always have a straight line to "flow" to, and an exclusive opposite pole?

    BLDC and its analogy to 3 phase induction motor

    At times BLDC are refered to as 3 phased since they carry a few poles. Creating similarity in the manner they are connected. Other than that the BLDC utilizes direct current - is it that by the switching pulses a rotating magnetic flux ensues? that doen't make so much sense since in the 3...

    BLDC: Coil Windings and their effect on maximum RPM

    I understand that there's a direct connection between the number of windings on each pole and the maximum RPM the BLDC can achieve. I understand that torque is proportional to the current in the windings and since less windings usually enables enlarging the winding wire thus enabling more...

    I (Current) Phasor and whether it is a compound number

    I hope anyone can help me with this. When calculating voltage drops with a cos (Phi) lets say 0.8[**see note at hte bottom]. I am not sure whether I am supposed to calculate the voltage drop like delta V = I (R cos (Phi) + X sin (Phi)) R being the real impedance and X being the reactive...
