Research abstract
In response to Navy SBIR solicitation topic N231-046 BlackBox Energy Systems proposes to investigate the capabilities of novel stator design axial flux BLDC motors for use in undersea unmanned vehicles. The Nautical Electric Motor (NEMo) will be highly efficient, lightweight cost effective and capable of operation in open seas up to 2000m depth. The NEMo will be capable of 5000rpm and up to 7Nm of torque with an integrated controller for ease of vehicle integration.
