The proposed collaborative research and development (R&D) project between the University of Windsor (UofW) and Magna International Inc. (MAGNA) aims at producing efficient, economic, light-weight and high-performance flexible traction AC electric motor drives for electrified vehicle (EV) application. Extensive research will be conducted by the UofW team with strong support from the industry to prototype scaled-down traction motor drives in an effort to verify the proposed novel design concept in terms of the use of new generation power electronics components, power converter topology, modulation strategy, control techniques, etc. Then, a full-scale traction motor drive prototype will be designed and developed by researchers from both teams by incorporating the theoretical and experimental research outcomes. MAGNA team will also provide support towards thermal management, layout and packaging of the traction motor drives. Highly qualified personnel including 2 MASc and 3 PhD students, 1 post-doctoral fellow and 1 research engineer from the UofW team will be trained during the project period of 2 years and 5 months. They will interact with the experts from MAGNA on a weekly basis. The research outcomes of this project will directly benefit the industry partner capture the EV traction motor drive market due to improved motor drive performance. Moreover, this project will provide positive solutions towards extending the driving range and reducing the overall cost of electrified vehicles. This will help accomplish the goals of motivating consumers towards electrified vehicles and reducing greenhouse gas emission in Canada and globally.

温莎大学（UofW）和麦格纳国际公司之间拟议的合作研究和开发（R&D）项目。（MAGNA）旨在为电动汽车（EV）应用生产高效、经济、重量轻和高性能的灵活牵引交流电机驱动器。UofW团队将在行业的大力支持下进行广泛的研究，以原型缩小牵引电机驱动器，以验证所提出的新设计概念，包括新一代电力电子元件的使用，功率变换器拓扑结构，调制策略，控制技术等。两个团队的研究人员将结合理论和实验研究成果，设计和开发全尺寸牵引电机驱动原型。MAGNA团队还将为牵引电机驱动器的热管理、布局和包装提供支持。高素质的人员，包括2个硕士和3名博士生，1名博士后研究员和1名来自UofW团队的研究工程师将在2年零5个月的项目期间接受培训。他们将每周与MAGNA的专家进行互动。该项目的研究成果将直接有利于行业合作伙伴通过提高电机驱动性能来占领电动汽车牵引电机驱动市场。此外，该项目将为扩大电动汽车的行驶里程和降低其整体成本提供积极的解决方案。这将有助于实现激励消费者购买电动汽车和减少加拿大和全球温室气体排放的目标。
