Torque Ripples:
 MaximumTorque – Minimum Torque
Torque Ripple Factor (TRF) % = x 100
Reference Motor Torque
Maximum Torque = 102 Nm
Minimum Torque = 81 Nm
Reference Motor Torque = 91.23 Nm
(102 – 81)
Torque Ripple Factor(TRF) = x 100
91.23

21
= x 100
91.23

Torque Ripple Factor(TRF) = 23.018 %

RESULT:
Thus the given Permanent Magnet Brushless DC(PMBLDC) Motor is simulated using
electromagnetic software MOTOR-XP and its results are viewed..
