Flow Field and Temperature Field of Water-Cooling-Type Magnetic Coupling

Abstract

At present, the water-cooling simulation of the water-cooled magnetic coupler is based on the water-cooled motor and the hydraulic coupler, which cannot accurately characterize the temperature distribution of the rotating watercooled coupling of the coupler. Focusing on rotating water cooling radiating, the present paper proposes simulating the water cooling temperature field as well as the flow field through the method of combining fluid-solid coupled heat transfer and MRF (Multiphase Reference Frame). In addition, taking an 800 kW magnetic coupling as an example, the paper optimizes the shape, number, cooling water inlet speed‚ and so on‚ of the cooling channel. Considering factors such as the complete machine's temperature, and drag torque, it is proved that the cooling effect is best when there are 36 involute curved channels and when the inlet speed is 3 m/s. Further, through experiments, the actual temperature values at six different positions when 50 kW and 70 kW thermal losses differ are measured. The measured values agree with the simulation results, proving the correctness of the proposed method. Further, data have been collected during the entire experimental procedure‚ and the variation in the coupling's temperature is analyzed in depth, with the objective of laying a foundation for the estimation of the inner temperature rise as well as for the optimization of the structural design.

Design of Intelligent and Sustainable Manufacturing Production Line for Automobile Wheel Hub

“…Multienergy field coupling research was carried out by adding electrostatic field [35,36], cold air field [37][38][39], and other energy fields to MQL [40][41][42] to improve the cooling lubrication effect. Nanofluids were added based on the minimum quantity of lubrication oil to improve the heat transfer capacity of lubricating oil and the lubrication effect [43][44][45][46][47]. Therefore, the integration of trace lubrication into the production line has become an inevitable choice.…”

A New Approach for Assessing Heat Balance State along a Water Transfer Channel during Winter Periods

“…They claimed that the solar radiation is an important factor in the heat budget of water bodies. Wang et al [16] pointed out that both temperature field and velocity field of flowing water during an ice-covered period are essential for studying the formation and evolution of frazil ice. By applying the Navier-Stokes equations and energy equation for flow under an ice cover, the velocity field and temperature field of flowing water have been analyzed.…”
