Abstract:Three dimensional (3–D), finite–element (FE) models and original lumped–parameter networks are developed for the transient thermal analysis of a permanent magnet motor (PMM) and an induction motor (IM) specifically designed and optimized for a demanding aerospace actuation application. A systematic comparison between the two different thermal modeling approaches is carried out using different loading conditions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
