According to a quantum leap of the performances of automobile, environmental factors are important as functional factors, especially noise. BLDC motor, one of the part of automobile, is also no exception. In this paper, investigation of the sound sources of outer rotor type BLDC motor is performed. In order to reduce noise, it must be necessary knowing sound source. To this end, this paper is analyzed two viewpoints, structural and electromagnetic causes. For structural analysis, modal experiment and 3D mode analysis are performed. On behalf of electromagnetic analysis, 2D finite element method is carried out. Finally, coupling analysis is performed in order to know about influence between two factors.
