Abstract
This study presents a thermoset moulding compound designed for electrical machines with high power densities. The compound reduces residual stresses induced by the difference in thermal expansion during use and by shrinkage in the compound during the manufacturing process. To reduce the internal stresses in the compound, in the electrical sheet lamination and at their interface, first the moulding’s coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) must match that of the lamination because the CTE of the electrical sheets cannot be altered. Second, the shrinkage of the compound needs to be minimized because the moulding compound is injected around a prefabricated electrical sheet lamination. This provides greater freedom in the design of an electric motor or generator, especially if the thermoset needs to be directly bonded to the electrical sheet. The basic suitability of the material for the injection moulding process was iteratively optimised and confirmed by spiral flow tests. Due to the reduction of the residual stresses, the compound enables efficient cooling solutions for electrical machines with high power densities. This innovative compound can have a significant impact on electric propulsion systems across industries that use laminated electrical sheets.
期刊介绍:
ACS Applied Bio Materials is an interdisciplinary journal publishing original research covering all aspects of biomaterials and biointerfaces including and beyond the traditional biosensing, biomedical and therapeutic applications.
The journal is devoted to reports of new and original experimental and theoretical research of an applied nature that integrates knowledge in the areas of materials, engineering, physics, bioscience, and chemistry into important bio applications. The journal is specifically interested in work that addresses the relationship between structure and function and assesses the stability and degradation of materials under relevant environmental and biological conditions.
