Axial v Radial Flux Motors for Electric Vessels

Electric motors have been used to propel boats since the late 1800’s, and since that time motor technology has operated under mostly the same configuration, deemed ‘radial flux’.

Overview of alternative propulsion technology

The marine sector is in a period of significant adjustment, as emissions management regimes and ambitious emissions reduction targets are applied variously for different ports, waterways and markets.

Insights into the cooling systems of traction motors

Traction motors do have several years in operation and for this reason the best practices from the automotive industry could be evaluated for other applications, as electric or hybrid vessels.
