The utility of PM-BLDC machines is extending its tentacles in industrial arena. The key features of BLDC machines include high starting torque density and extending speed range, though the cogging torque is a threat for its performance. Various techniques have been devised to minimize cogging torque, out of which two approaches Bifurcation and Slot Opening methods have been focused in this paper. Usage of SPEED Software in comparing the reduction of cogging torque for the above two techniques is the highlight of this paper.
