Numerical investigations of convective phenomena of oil impingement on end-windings (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Connor, P., La Rocca, A., Xu, Z., Eastwick, C., Pickering, S., & Gerada, C. (2018). Numerical investigations of convective phenomena of oil impingement on end-windings.

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 has been modelled, using computational fluid dynamics (CFD), to inform the de...

A CFD and experimental investigation into a non-intrusive method for measuring cooling air mass flow rate through a synchronous generator (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Bersch, K., Connor, P. H., Eastwick, C. N., & Galea, M. (2018). A CFD and experimental investigation into a non-intrusive method for measuring cooling air mass flow rate through a synchronous generator.

This paper presents a detailed methodology for a non-intrusive measurement of cooling air mass flow rate that enables an overall machine evaluation. This approach enables the simultaneous measurement of air mass flow with shaft torque at differing op...
