Design optimization for permanent magnet machine with efficient slot per pole ratio

This paper presents a methodology for the enhancement of a Brush Less Direct Current motor (BLDC) with 6Poles and 8slots. In particular; it is focused on amulti-objective optimization using a Genetic Algorithmand Grey Wolf Optimization developed in MATLAB. The optimization aims to maximize the maximum output power value and minimize the total losses of a motor. This paper presents an application of the MATLAB optimization algorithms to brushless DC (BLDC) motor design, with 7 design parameters chosen to be free. The optimal design parameters of the motor derived by GA are compared with those obtained by Grey Wolf Optimization technique. A comparative report on the specified enhancement approaches appearsthat Grey Wolf Optimization technique has a better convergence.
