Steady state

Overview

In the current version two Flow Simulator exports are available the steady state thermal analysis and the thermal transient analysis for three-phase inner rotor SMPM.

Characterization – Thermal -Motor & Generator – Steady State

Positioning and objective

The aim of this export is to represent the steady state thermal behavior of the machine through a customizable lumped thermal parameter model coupled with a flow network when necessary.

The resulting model is a 3D representation of a steady state thermal circuit built in Flow SimulatorTM, it corresponds to the thermal model used in Flux Motor® to run both, thermal and coupled tests.

The following section describes all the user inputs and settings to initialize the exported model.
