Fixing an electric motor and controller

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on converting a Maruti Suzuki Omni van into an electric vehicle (EV) for goods transportation. The proposed setup includes an HPM 20 kW BLDC motor paired with an HPC 700 motor controller. Key specifications for the modified vehicle include a Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) of 2000 kg, a frontal area of 2.34 sq.m, and a maximum velocity of 60 km/hr. The user also plans to implement a DC to DC converter to power standard 12V equipment within the vehicle.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of electric vehicle conversion principles
  • Familiarity with BLDC motors and their specifications
  • Knowledge of motor controllers, specifically the HPC 700
  • Basic electrical engineering concepts related to DC to DC converters
NEXT STEPS
  • Research battery types and capacities suitable for an HPM 20 kW BLDC motor
  • Explore the specifications and installation of the HPC 700 motor controller
  • Learn about the design and implementation of DC to DC converters for automotive applications
  • Investigate electric vehicle weight distribution and its impact on performance
USEFUL FOR

Automotive engineers, electric vehicle enthusiasts, and individuals involved in vehicle modifications or conversions to electric power systems.

hey I'm about to modify the current maruti suzuki omni van into electric van we're constructing it for goods carrying purpose. the current one is powered by ic engine developing 35 bhp and 60 n-m torque.

modified vehicle should satisfy following criteria.

1. GVW= 2000kg.
2. frontal area= 2.34 sq.m.
3. velocity= 60km/hr (max.)

You'll need a plan for the batteries, motor & motor controller, as well as a way to provide 12V to all of the standard equipment on the vehicle. What motor and battery setup do you plan to use?

i wish to use HPM 20 kw BLDC motor with HPC 700 controller.
as I'm newbee at this also give me your suggestions over my motor and controller.
i'm going to use dc to dc converter for all the other equipment which will be needed to run the other electrical appliances.
i'll decide battery type and capacity after fixing motor and controller.
