Abstract: This course offers an in-depth analysis of advanced thermal management and cooling system design for electric motors. Utilizing ANSYS Fluent as the primary computational fluid dynamics (CFD) tool for robust thermal study, the course guides participants through a highly accurate, two-way coupled multi-physics workflow. Students will learn how to seamlessly export electromagnetic power losses…
Abstract: Precise temperature prediction in the thermal analysis of electrical machines relies heavily on highly accurate slot modeling. To achieve this level of detail, the computational model must meticulously mirror the physical reality of the motor by representing the windings on a wire-by-wire basis. Furthermore, every layer of insulative material within the slots must be…
Abstract: This course covers the thermal analysis and design of an axial-flux electric machine of your choice using a powerful dual-method approach. The study begins with the development of an analytical model, namely a Lumped Parameter Thermal Network (LPTN), which is then implemented in MATLAB. Subsequently, the LPTN results are validated against numerical simulations, including…
Abstract: This course covers the thermal analysis and design of a radial-flux electric machine of your choice using a powerful dual-method approach. The study begins with the development of an analytical model, namely a Lumped Parameter Thermal Network (LPTN), which is then implemented in MATLAB. Subsequently, the LPTN results are validated against numerical simulations, including…
