Rectangular and Random Conductors: AC Losses Evaluations and Manufacturing Considerations (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Preci, E., Valente, G., Bardalai, A., Transi, T., Zou, T., Gerada, D., Degano, M., Buticchi, G., & Gerada, C. (2020, October). Rectangular and Random Conductors: AC Losses Evaluations and Manufacturing Considerations. Presented at IECON 2020 - 46th Annual Conference of the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society, Singapore, Singapore

This paper presents a comparison between hairpin and random distributed winding in electrical machines for automotive applications. Indeed, the overall performance of an electrical drive system is seriously affected by its winding design. The conside...

Influence of Airgap Length on Performance of High Power PM-Assisted Syn-Rel Machines (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Zou, T., Gerada, D., Walker, A., Vakil, G., La Rocca, S., La Rocca, A., Paciura, K., Barden, R., Ernest, E., Zhu, S., Qayyum, N., McQueen, A., Bardalai, A., Ram Kumar, R. M., Marfoli, A., & Gerada, C. (2020, October). Influence of Airgap Length on Performance of High Power PM-Assisted Syn-Rel Machines. Presented at 2020 IEEE Energy Conversion Congress and Exposition (ECCE 2020), Detroit, MI, USA

In recent years, synchronous reluctance (Syn-Rel) machines are research hotspots in variable speed motor drives due to their robust rotor structure and wide constant power speed range (CPSR). More practically, when kVA limitation is considered, embed... Read More about Influence of Airgap Length on Performance of High Power PM-Assisted Syn-Rel Machines.
