Reduction of Winding AC Losses by Accurate Conductor Placement in High Frequency Electrical Machines (2019)
Journal Article
Bardalai, A., Gerada, D., Golovanov, D., Xu, Z., Zhang, X., Li, J., …Gerada, C. (2020). Reduction of Winding AC Losses by Accurate Conductor Placement in High Frequency Electrical Machines. IEEE Transactions on Industry Applications, 56(1), 183-193. https://doi.org/10.1109/TIA.2019.2947552

© 1972-2012 IEEE. In the design of electrical machines, the increase in power density has become one of the main research themes. With most of the power loss in high power density electrical machines often being generated in the stator winding assemb...

Effective Thermal Conductivity Calculation and Measurement of Litz Wire based on the Porous Metal Materials Structure (2019)
Journal Article
Liu, X., Gerada, D., Xu, Z., Corfield, M., Gerada, C., & Yu, H. (2020). Effective Thermal Conductivity Calculation and Measurement of Litz Wire based on the Porous Metal Materials Structure. IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics, 67(4), 2667-2677. https://doi.org/10.1109/tie.2019.2910031

Litz wires are employed in high-frequency electrical machines due to their advantages of reducing the ac losses, including minimizing the skin effect and the proximity effect. In order to improve the reliability of such machines, and enable accurate...

Numerical investigations of convective phenomena of oil impingement on end-windings (2019)
Journal Article
Connor, P. H., La Rocca, A., Xu, Z., Eastwick, C. N., Pickering, S. J., & Gerada, C. (2019). Numerical investigations of convective phenomena of oil impingement on end-windings. Journal of Engineering, 2019(17), 4022-4026. https://doi.org/10.1049/joe.2018.8027

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...
