“…It was shown that the cooling performance was better with higher fin geometry, lower fin pitch and higher airflow velocity in the array of fins. According to Peng et al [119], the fin pitch ratio has a more significant influence on the temperature of winding, despite that the temperature of winding decreased also with the fin pitch ratio, fin thickness and fin height. Meanwhile, the fin efficiency decreased with the fin height.…”

“…The model predicted the temperature field of the motor and the flow characteristics of air with only a 2% deviation from the CFD model. Peng et al [163] studied electric motor cooling with forced air convection and showed that the fin pitch ratio had a significant influence on the temperature of the winding. Kim et al [164] introduced air-gap fans to the motor cooling, and various fan configurations were studied.…”

The burgeoning electric vehicle industry has become a crucial player in tackling environmental pollution and addressing oil scarcity. As these vehicles continue to advance, effective thermal management systems are essential to ensure battery safety, optimize energy utilization, and prolong vehicle lifespan. This paper presents an exhaustive review of diverse thermal management approaches at both the component and system levels, focusing on electric vehicle air conditioning systems, battery thermal management systems, and motor thermal management systems. In each subsystem, an advanced heat transfer process with phase change is recommended to dissipate the heat or directly cool the target. Moreover, the review suggested that a comprehensive integration of AC systems, battery thermal management systems, and motor thermal management systems is inevitable and is expected to maximize energy utilization efficiency. The challenges and limitations of existing thermal management systems, including system integration, control algorithms, performance balance, and cost estimation, are discussed, along with potential avenues for future research. This paper is expected to serve as a valuable reference for forthcoming research.

“…The influence of core loss distribution, airflow speed distribution, and thermal radiation was evaluated in this [20] study, which compared multiple thermal modeling methodologies for Totally Enclosed Fan Cooled (TEFC) electric motors. The thermal performance of a TEFC electric motor was numerically simulated and studied in [21]. The Taguchi technique was utilized to decrease the computing work required to calculate fin size, fin pitch, and fan cover position.…”

The major goal of this research article is to demonstrate how perforation on the fin surface of an induction motor’s housing improves cooling performance. Heat transfer study was also conducted between traditional fins and the suggested perforated fins housing. An Induction Motor (IM) overheats as a result of continuous operation, raising its temperature, lowering its performance and shortening its lifespan. The innovative designs and development of fins are necessary for effective cooling and enhancing the thermal performance of IM. In the present work, the thermal analysis of induction motor is carried out by means of providing the perforations on existing fins and varying perforation size from 4 mm to 10 mm diameters and number of perforation from 20 to 11, on fins and observed the steady state heat transfer and temperature variation. In this regard, the half part of IM is modelled because of symmetry and steady state thermal analysis is carried out for un-finned, solid fins and perforated fins using ANSYS software. Results show that, more reduction in temperature on the surface of IM is observed in case of perforated fins having 11 perforations of 10 mm diameter, as compared to the other cases.
