EV's and Indian Manufacturing: Prof. Ashok Jhunjhunwaala | Visit to IIT Madras

Plug In India

For 40 years his personal transportation needs were met by a scooter. To provide a context, even the much older lead acid chemistry lasts for 300 to 500 cycles.) In order to connect the windings in the radial flux motor, you need some of the copper conductors to be placed outside the magnetic field. So what went wrong?
