Description: The simulation model for a Brushless D.C. Motor and the associated commutation power      conditioner transistor model are presented. The necessary conditions for maximum power      output while operating at steady-state speed and sinusoidally distributed air-gap flux are      developed. Comparison of simulated model with the measured performance of a typical      motor are done both on time response waveforms and on average performance      characteristics. These preliminary results indicate good agreement. Plans for model      improvement and testing of a motor-driven positioning device for model evaluation are      outlined. (Author)
