Electrical Machine Design with Directly Cooled Laminated Fractional Pitch Windings
A directly cooled winding in an electrical machine is an appealing solution for a traction application when the electrical machine is operating near peak power for extended periods of time. This directly cooled winding is based on a laminated structure where the power losses in the conducting strips are instantly dissipated by an air-flow between the strips. As an outcome, the hottest component of
