Cover Story: The trend for electric vehicles to be more lightweight and efficient requires the propulsion system to improve its compactness. However, the conventional mechanical differential seems bulky and less efficient for an electric vehicle. Thus, many researchers have got rid of it by installing multiple motors onboard. Nevertheless, individually controlled motors still take up much space. The magnetic differential system is therefore proposed, combining the functions of the motor and differential altogether into one double-rotor motor. This is attractive due to its simple control and high compactness. This paper proposes and comparatively studies three types of stator permanent magnet motors. Their pros and cons, as well as the suitable application scenarios, are all investigated. A prototype has been fabricated to validate the theoretical analysis. View this paper
