Stator and rotor vent modelling in a MVA rated synchronous machine (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Connor, P. H., Eastwick, C., Pickering, S. J., Gerada, C., & Rolston, R. (2016). Stator and rotor vent modelling in a MVA rated synchronous machine. In 2016 XXII International Conference on Electrical Machines (ICEM) (571-577). https://doi.org/10.1109/ICELMACH.2016.7732583

An investigation into the solution dependence of a conjugate heat transfer computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model of a synchronous generator, with respect to meshing, has been carried out. Utilising CFD as a tool for investigating the airflow and t... Read More about Stator and rotor vent modelling in a MVA rated synchronous machine.

Thermal management of a high speed permanent magnet machine for an aeroengine (2016)
Conference Proceeding
La Rocca, A., Xu, Z., Arumugam, P., Pickering, S., Eastwick, C., Gerada, C., & Bozhko, S. (2016). Thermal management of a high speed permanent magnet machine for an aeroengine.

The paper describes the mechanical and thermal design of a high speed, high power density synchronous permanent magnet machine for an aero engine starter generator system with a power rating of 150 kW and maximum speed of 32,000 rpm. As both mechanic... Read More about Thermal management of a high speed permanent magnet machine for an aeroengine.
