This is one of the SEED curriculum engineering design guides. SEED (Sharing Experience in Engineering Design) is an organisation of teachers of design in tertiary education.
The purpose of this guide is to enable the user to determine the attributes required of an electric motor to meet a specific power transmission need and then to select one from those offered by manufacturers. It has been compiled as part of a series, which covers typical elements of a system.
In this guide only conventional power transmission motors will be considered. This covers AC and DC motors between about 30 watts and 30 kilowatts. Other motors will be dealt with in other guides. The guide looks at the selection procedure, factors affecting motor selection, and motor selection and specification.
