Equivalent Slot Thermal Conductivity and Back-iron Extension Effects on Machine Cooling (2019)
Conference Proceeding
Zhang, F., Gerada, D., Xu, Z., Zhang, H., & Gerada, C. (2019). Equivalent Slot Thermal Conductivity and Back-iron Extension Effects on Machine Cooling. In Proceedings of 2019 22nd International Conference on Electrical Machines and Systems (ICEMS). https://doi.org/10.1109/ICEMS.2019.8921725

Back-iron Extension (BIE) is an effective thermal management technique which reduces the winding temperatures by projecting part of the back iron into the center of slot, thereby shortening the heat transfer path between the coil and back iron. Based... Read More about Equivalent Slot Thermal Conductivity and Back-iron Extension Effects on Machine Cooling.
