We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

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
