description

In this chapter we describe a method for computing the 3d nonstationary temperature field in the lamination pack of a stator of a synchronous or asynchronous (induction) motor with a centrifugal, meander or chamber ventilation (see [Křižek, Preiningerova]). The stator of a motor has quite a complicated geometrical form. Moreover, it consists of anisotropic materials which have very different heat conductivities, e.g., 332.8 [W/mK] for copper wires and 0.2 [W/mK] for their insulations. This causes big jumps in coefficients of the appropriate heat conduction equation, and is the main source of numerical difficulties in practical calculations.
