Types of motors used in EV The population is increasing day by day, and as the population is increasing so is pollution. Now, pollution has become a great concern around the globe. This major problem concerning pollution has come up with a revolution of EVs (Electric Vehicle) for a greener globe. Electric vehicles are a new trend in recent days. As we all know EVs majorly run on batteries, but there is another component that is needed for the EVs to run the electric motor. Fast development in technology has created a space in the market for various electric motors for EVs. Types of electric motors Brushless DC Motor (BLDC) Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) Three-Phase AC Induction Motors Switched Reluctance Motors (SRM) 1. Brushless DC Motor ( BLDC) This motor is similar to DC motors. This motor does not use brushes, and it is an added advantage for the EV as it gives a high power-to-weight ratio and is high in efficiency. These motors can wit...

Types of Battery used for EVs

Types of Battery used in EVs EVs are the new trend in the market of two-wheeler, three-wheeler and four-wheelers. Every manufacturer is focusing on transportation vehicles that does not harm the environment. EVs are the new resolution, An Electric Vehicle run on battery and motor, as there are no IC engines for EVs. The battery used in EVs are all rechargeable. All the batteries have their own pros and cons. According to the cost, discharge, and temperature the battery can handle and density, the battery type is chosen for the usage. There are three types of batteries used for EVs and they are as follows. 1.      Gel Battery 2.      Lead-Acid Battery 3.      Lithium Ion Battery (LI-ION) 4.      Lithium Ion Ferro Phosphate Battery (LiFePo 4 )   LEAD ACID LI-ION (Lithium Ion) LiFePO 4 (Lithium Iron Ferro Phosphate) Cost ·   ...
