1. A method of calibrating a motor assembly, the method comprising:
selecting an electric motor and a motor controller for the motor assembly of a heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) system;
obtaining at least one electric motor parameter of the electric motor;
determining, using the at least one electric motor parameter of the electric motor, an expected torque output of the motor assembly;
determining a correction factor for the electric motor based upon the determined expected torque output of the motor assembly;
programming the motor controller with the correction factor; and
wherein the determining the correction factor consists of determining a measured rotor flux of the electric motor, a friction torque slope of the electric motor, and a friction torque bias of the electric motor.
