... damageable parts for overheating in generators are the end winding bars, pole windings and stator ducts. Design/methodology/approach – The reduced model introduced is basically derived from the state-of-the-art pole section model (PSM) and enables faster computations for heat transfer and cooling...

... of an induction motor have been measured with heat flux sensors, in order to find out the convective heat transfer coefficient. To identify the air mass flow inside a cooling duct of an encapsulated cooling circuit during the operation of the motor, the pressure loss inside the duct has been measured...
