The key is “in some applications.” Not in all applications. There are areas where brushless DC motors are inefficient, these are better in those areas - my guess is low speed, high torque use cases.
- aidenn0 2y agoA) that's the sort of thing I wish the article had mentioned. B) I know it's research, but low speed high torque situations usually involve a reduction gear-set. They make some surprisingly compact ones these days.
- eightysixfour 2y agoB) Yes, which involve losses and packaging changes. Exactly why a motor like this would be useful…
