A. Generate population
This operator randomly generates population from available
ranges of design variables. Each chromosome in the
population is randomly generated to ensure diversity within
the population. Only one of the strings from the entire
population is taken from the initially developed CAD
program.
B. Selection
The string which has highest value of objective function
is assigned fitness 2, others are given 1 and string with
lowest value is given 0 fitness. String with lowest fitness
value is discarded from the population and string with highest
fitness is retained with multiple copies.
C. Crossover
This operator interchanges two different strings from
particular population at random and this leads to generation of
two new different strings. In other words, it creates diversity
in population though there are multiple copies of same strings.
D. Mutation
Mutation operator brings sudden and random changes in
a string selected at random in given population. This operators
is incorporated in algorithm because in natural selection
process, mutation sometimes brings positive change leading to
generation of better string.
IV. POWER DENSITY OPTIMIZATION
In this optimization process, power density of the motor is
considered as fitness function for GA. Power density of motor
is output power of motor per unit volume. At first, only two
design variables Bg and Is are considered and optimized values

V. CONCLUSION
Design optimization procedure of radial flux PMBLDC
motor is presented in this paper using Genetic Algorithm.
Fitness function taken for GA is power density of the motor.
Aim is to maximize power density up to possible value.
Maximum power density indicates that motor will run at
maximum power with least volume. Finite element method
(FEM) was carried out to confirm the methodical optimized
design. Results of FEM indicated that the results of analytical
optimization agree with those obtained by FEM.
