Method to define the airgap

In the topology sub area, three ways are possible to define the structural data of the machine based upon the diameters and the airgap. They are illustrated below.



Method to define the diameters of the machine and the airgap

Example for machines like Synchronous Machine with Wound Field, Inner Salient Pole, and Inner Rotor

or Synchronous Machines with Permanent Magnets with Inner Rotor

1

User defines the inner diameter of the stator and the airgap.

The outer diameter of the rotor is automatically deduced (automatically computed value is displayed in grey color).

2

User defines the inner diameter of the stator and the outer diameter of the rotor.

The airgap is automatically deduced (automatically computed value is displayed in grey color).

3

User defines the outer diameter of the rotor and the airgap.

The inner diameter of the stator is automatically deduced (automatically computed value is displayed in grey color).
