A novel Brushless DC (BLDC) motor system. The design is intended to decouple the torque from the voltage in BLDC motors, allowing torque and speed to be independent. The outcome is consistently applying torque to the shaft while reducing parts and friction and providing greater system control.
Oceanographic exploration relies heavily on large dynamic-range electric motors. Traditionally, a large dynamic range is produced with high voltage and a transmission. Increasingly, these motors in exploration vehicles run on batteries as a power source. Therefore, these motors must operate with maximum power, space, and weight efficiency.
