Motor Performance Analysis by akeisic

All,

I'm happy to finally upload version 4.0 of my motor performance spreadsheet! It's been in development for a while now and I'm happy to release it in time for the 2015 season. Here's the summary of the upgrades.

v4.0 Upgrades: MAJOR OVERHAUL TO ALL FUNCTIONALITY!!
- Added the ability to combine multiple dis-similar motors
- Added easy drop downs to combine motors via free speed, max power or max efficiency.
- Added the ability to maximize the device's speed or torque (design philosophy)
- Added the ability to save design iterations
- Added the ability to see the de-normalized motor graphs (useful for motor comparisons)
- Added the ability to match the real life gear ratio by adjusting the design philosophy
- Updated all motor specifications and provided hyperlinks to data source
- Added the optimal gear ratio per gear interface
- Added the ability to compare the resultant values vs the required values
- Overhauled the user interface to be more intuitive

Good luck!
Andrew
