Analytical Calculation and Experimental Validation of Litz Wires Axial Thermal Conductivity (2023)
Journal Article
Li, Z., Xu, Z., Zhang, F., Gerada, D., Guo, R., Zhang, H., …Zhang, C. (2024). Analytical Calculation and Experimental Validation of Litz Wires Axial Thermal Conductivity. IEEE Transactions on Transportation Electrification, 10(1), 1167-1179. https://doi.org/10.1109/TTE.2023.3262766

Litz wires are widely used in electrical machines with reduced AC losses, compared to traditional random winding. The reduced AC losses can improve both electrical machines electromagnetic performance, such as efficiency and thermal performance. Ther...
