FEM is a favored motor design tool for its high accuracy. Magnetic equ
ivalent circuit analysis, an alternative to FEM, is becoming popular f
or its fair accuracy and quick repetition of computation. An equivalen
t circuit model of a brushless DC motor is developed and its ability t
o, accurately predict various motor performance parameters is assessed
.
