This article presents a new and powerful freeware software called MotorAnalysis-PM and discusses its application in electromagnetic design and analysis of permanent magnet (PM) motors for the electric vehicle (EV) industry. This new PM motor software utilizes both finite element (FE) and analytical methods to speed up the analysis and design process of PM motors significantly. The analysis and design methodology using MotorAnalysis-PM is presented and discussed for a 50 kW PM motor utilized in a commercial EV. To validate the accuracy of the software, the numerical results obtained from the PM motor design and analysis tool are compared with experimental results. The numerical and experimental results validate the flexibility of this software in achieving accurate motor design with short design times which is of great interest to EV and PM motor manufacturers.

A three dimensional structural collapse analysis computer program is described, and illustrated by reference to a safety vehicle structure analysed and designed using the program. The particular problems of large displacements and material non-linearity are accounted for, and a method of estimating the permanent set which results after impact is described. Based on an incremental formulation of the conventional finite-element method, the computer program is capable of tracing the complete load deflection characteristics of a structure up to and beyond the point of collapse.

Positron Emission Tomography (PET) produces a three dimensional spatial distribution of positron-electron annihilations within an image volume. Various positron emitters are available for use in aqueous, organic and liquid metal flows. Preliminary experiments at the University of Tennessee at Knoxville (UTK) injected small flows of PET tracer into a bulk water flow in a four rod bundle. The trajectory and diffusion of the tracer in the bulk flow were then mapped using a PET scanner. A spatial resolution of 1.4 mm is achieved with current preclinical Micro-PET imaging equipment resulting in 200 MB 3D activity fields. A time resolved 3-D spatial activity profile was also measured. The PET imaging method is especially well suited to complex geometries where traditional optical methods such as LDV and PIV are difficult to apply. PET methods are uniquely useful for imaging in opaque fluids, opaque pressure boundaries, and multiphase studies. Several commercial and shareware Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) codes are currently used for science and engineering analysis and design. These codes produce detailed three dimensional flow predictions. The models produced by these codes are often difficult to validate. The development of this experimental technique offers a modality for the comparison of CFD outcomes with experimental data. Developed data sets from PET can be used in verification and validation exercises of simulation outcomes.
