The motor releases torque and power to drive an electric car by carrying the load from a start position until it travels at the desired speed. The KMLI E-Falco electric car uses a BLDC type electric motor with a power capacity of 2 kW. To find out the amount of torque of a 2 kW BLDC motor when driving with variations in speed, it can be done by manual calculations using the torque equation and doing a dynotest test. The dynotest results show that the motor torque at the speed: 1 km/h is 1 Nm, 10 km/h is 131 Nm, 13 km/h is 228 Nm, 20 km/h is 225 Nm, 30 km/h is 219 Nm, 40 km / h is 188 Nm, 50 km / hour is 145 Nm, 60 km / h is 113 Nm, and 70 km / h is 85 Nm. From the results of the dynotest, it shows that the peak torque occurs at a speed of 13 km / h at 228 Nm. Racing software installed in the controller can increase the motor torque by four times at a speed variation of 13-70 km/h based on the results of the dynotest above. Keywords: motor, BLDC, torque, speed, acceleration.

Firefly Algorithm (FA) is a recent swarm intelligence first introduced by X.S. Yang in 2008. It has been widely used to solve several optimization problems. Since then, many research works were elaborated presenting modified versions intending to improve performances of the standard one. Consequently, this article aims to present an accelerated variant compared to the original Algorithm. Through the resolving of some benchmark functions to reach optimal solution, obtained results demonstrate the superiority of the suggested alternative, so-called Fast Firefly Algorithm (FFA), when faced with those of the standard FA in term of convergence fastness to the global solution according to an almost similar precision. Additionally, a successful application for the control of a brushless direct current electric motor (BLDC) motor by optimization of the Proportional Integral (PI) regulator parameters is given. These parameters are optimized by the FFA, FA, GA, PSO and ABC algorithms using the IAE, ISE, ITAE and ISTE performance criteria.

The brushless direct current (BLDC) machines which are preferred in light electric vehicles (LEVs) come forward as high regenerative braking capability machines due to their permanent magnet excitation and relatively simple operation. In this paper, the regenerative braking capability limits of BLDC machines and their drive circuits are examined by taking into account nonlinear circuit parameters and battery internal resistance variation. During energy recovery from mechanical port to electrical port, the inverter of BLDC machine is operated as a boost converter which enables power flow to a battery. However, the regeneration performance is also heavily dependant on the battery condition, particularly the temperature. By means of the developed detailed circuit model including the non-ideal effects of the boosting converter and the increase of the internal resistance variation which is caused by the temperature variation of the battery and ambient temperature, the specific duty cycle can be determined. The specific duty ratio is then applied in a proposed approach for various operation scenarios. The experimental tests are implemented by a 400 W BLDC machine drive system controlled via a TMS320F28335 digital signal processor. The experimental results show that the proposed comprehensive model presents a proper performance estimation of regenerative braking system under varying battery temperature.
