Accurate modeling and performance analysis of brushless DC (BLDC) motors are essential for high-efficiency control in modern drive systems. In this article, a BLDC motor was modeled using system identification techniques. In addition, experimental data were collected from the BLDC motor, including its speed response to various input signals. Using system identification tools, particularly those provided by MATLAB/Simulink R2024b, an approximation model of the BLDC motor was constructed to represent the motor’s dynamic behavior. The identified model was experimentally validated using various input signals, demonstrating its accuracy and generalizability under different operating conditions. Additionally, a series of mechanical load tests was conducted using the AVL eddy-current dynamometer to evaluate performance under practical operating conditions. Fixed load torques were applied across a range of motor speeds, and multiple torque levels were tested to assess the motor’s dynamic response. Electrical power, mechanical power, and efficiency of the entire system were computed for each case to assess overall system performance. Moreover, the real-time state of charge (SOC) of Lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery was estimated using the Coulomb counting method to analyze the impact of Li-ion battery energy level on the BLDC motor efficiency. The study offers valuable insights into the motor’s dynamic and energetic behavior, forming a foundation for robust control design and real-time application development.
