Electrical Machine Slot Thermal Condition Effects on Back Iron Extension Thermal Benefits (2021)
Journal Article
Zhang, F., Gerada, D., Xu, Z., Tighe, C., Zhang, H., Yan, L., & Gerada, C. (2021). Electrical Machine Slot Thermal Condition Effects on Back Iron Extension Thermal Benefits. IEEE Transactions on Transportation Electrification, 7(4), 2927-2938. https://doi.org/10.1109/tte.2021.3085822

The slot thermal condition is critical for thermal management of high-performance electrical machines, due to the high heat losses and poor heat transfer ability within the slot. With a part of the back iron projected radially downward into the slot,... Read More about Electrical Machine Slot Thermal Condition Effects on Back Iron Extension Thermal Benefits.
