A Look at Heat Dissipation Through E-Drives
Heat is also generated in an e-motor, sometimes quite a bit. In demanding applications, the motor electronics cause the power to be throttled or even shut down completely. But there is another clever way to protect an electric motor from overheating without losing power: using a thermally conductive casting resin as a heat transfer medium. The principle can also be called a static solid cooling system.
E-Mobility Boot Camp
Electrification is changing the automotive industry wholesale. This online article looks at training and transmission technology courses available in the e-mobility sector today. Coursework includes examining gearbox structure to battery technology to health and safety issues. This expansion continues to prepare engineers, manufacturers, and technicians for the shift toward electric vehicles.
Thermally Safe Operating Speed—DIN 732
We are finally on to our 3rd and (maybe) final installment of speed ratings. For those playing along at home, DIN 732 is essentially the second part of ISO 15312. In ISO 15312, we solved the Thermal Speed Rating—which you could think of as a generic safe operating speed under normal conditions. DIN 732 defines a Speed Ratio which is a factor multiplied to the Thermal Speed Rating to calculate the Thermally Safe Operating Speed.
