Summary

UniformLayout Layout specification for non-specified layouts:

  • Stranded windings are modelled as infinitely stranded, with zero AC losses and filling the entire slot surface area. NOTE: filling factor IS taken into account inside PolyphaseCircuit.

  • Solid winding fill the entire slot area.

  • Stranded windings are modelled as infinitely stranded, with zero AC losses and filling the entire slot surface area. NOTE: filling factor IS taken into account inside PolyphaseCircuit.

  • Solid winding fill the entire slot area.

* compute_losses_stranded Estimate AC losses in stranded windings.

Estimate AC loss distribution for stranded (= non-solid) conductor models.

[p_el, data] = compute_losses_stranded(this, winding_spec, dBx, dBy, conductivity), where

  • winding_spec : PolyphaseWindingSpec object for specifying the winding.

  • dBx, dBy : time-derivative of flux density

  • conductivity : electrical conductivity, assumed uniform.
