Hello!

many of the parameters in MotorCAD include a simplified yet efficient way to account for physical effect of part interaction. the Adhesion Factor is one of those and accounts in a condenced way for the effect of the presence of a glue. The documentation describes its definition and use in the calculation.

 

regarding your design choice, unfortunately we can't provide educated comment as not being e-motor designers. Please try to discuss with a more experience e-motor designer or make some simulation studies to learn the sensitivity of your design to this paramenter (gap).

thanks

 

Adriano
