The document summarizes the optimization of electric machine designs for powered wheelchairs. Four machine types were considered: radial and axial permanent magnet synchronous machines, a transverse flux permanent magnet machine, and a switched reluctance machine. Analytical designs were performed and compared based on criteria like efficiency, power factor, weight, cost, and power-to-weight ratio. Numerical simulation will be used to validate the analytical approach and select the best design for a wheelchair motor.
