Thinking further, whilst I think the above is correct, a bigger effect might be that a VFD runs at a fixed current and a speed-controlling PID in LinuxCNC can only vary the frequency (which increases torque at a constant load speed in an induction motor, but doesn't in a synchronous motor, which can only lose synch if drive frequency and spindle speed don't match).

Re: [Emc-users] Outrunners
100K / 60 * 2(poles) = electrical rpms. You'll need to run the pwm well over 100Khz to do this. The lowly dspic33f mc motor series will struggle to do this, let alone any additional processing. My thought was to not run PWM but only direct switching at a base frequency of a few kHz and without any sensing of rotor angle. The rotor will run well once it is locked in to the rotating field from the stator. Crude, but it works. What is the reference to ancient times? The BLDC core design is perceived as a very late principle but the basic design with a constantly magnetized rotor and a three phase excited stator is very old. Of course hall sensors and MOSFET H-bridges came in a little later than 1910. -- Virtualization Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service. http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfnl/114/51521223/ ___ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
Re: [Emc-users] Outrunners
While 10 RPM is pretty impressive mechanicalvise, it is only 1700 Hz on a two-pole motor. A BLDC is similar to a syncronous three phase motor that was used much for really high power apps in ancient times, maybe even today. Typical example is a city water supply pump. They had to be brought up to the right speed before being connected to the supply, they were not self starting.

Re: [Emc-users] Outrunners
Hi Kirk, saw that you are strugling for outrunners for model air planes, cars or boats. Look at http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/index.rc for quite good and afordable motors and ESC's. The number of rpm's depend on the type of motor and the aplyed voltage. You can calculate this by multiplying the voltage with value of kv (e.g. 1024kv). For the ESC take one that has some reserve, meaning when the motor takes a maximum current of 60A take an ESC for 80A continuous or more. Cheaper motors also have cheaper bearings. Some motors have a fan mounted on the housing. These are normaly designed for helicopters, because in a helicopter you don't have a cooling air current.

Re: [Emc-users] Outrunners
It has been mentioned in this thread already, but I think it can be clarified. Outrunners when they appeared were a blessing for the R/C plane builder, since a propeller wants to run at speeds below 10 000 RPM for best efficency and earlier motors did maybe 20-30 000 RPM so they had to be geared. The new outrunners had the torque already at lower RPM so no downgearing was needed anymore. For PCB milling on the other hand with carbide bits of 0.3 mm dia or so you cannot get to much RPM really, 50-100 000 RPM is desirable to get a decent cutting speed. This is not what outrunners are optimised for. You would be better off with a long narrow inrunner of the same power as the short fat outrunner. // Lars -- Virtualization Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service. http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfnl/114/51521223/ ___ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users

Re: [Emc-users] Outrunners
Another advantage of inrunners is that you can directly cool the stator which is where you're generating all the heat. On bigger motors (Im talking from forktruck/golfcar motor size experience), DC armatures had a similar problem (as outrunners). You're dumping a lot of heat into something thats impossible to heatsink. It was a lot easier to cool the separately excited dc stator since you can simply fin the motor housing. AC motors, both PM and induction, can be designed so there is very little heat in the rotor that you have to get rid of. -- Virtualization Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service. http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfnl/114/51521223/ ___ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
