A novel experimental rig for analysing intensive liquid cooling of highly power-dense electrical machine components has been developed. Coupled fluid flow and heat transfer have been modelled, using computational fluid dynamics (CFD), to inform the d...

Fluid flow and heat transfer analysis of TEFC machine end regions using more realistic end-winding geometry (2019)
Journal Article
La Rocca, S., Pickering, S. J., Eastwick, C. N., Gerada, C., & Rönnberg, K. (2019). Fluid flow and heat transfer analysis of TEFC machine end regions using more realistic end-winding geometry. Journal of Engineering, 2019(17), 3831-3835. https://doi.org/10.1049/joe.2018.8026

Here, a typical small low-voltage totally enclosed fan-cooled (TEFC) motor (output power ∼10 kW) has been studied using computational fluid dynamics. The complexity of the end-winding geometries, often consisting of several insulated copper strands b...
