Abstract :
THE disposal of the heat resulting from the electrical and mechanical losses in any electric machine is always an important item to the designer as well as to the operator of the machine. These losses appearing all in the form of heat must be transferred from their source with a temperature gradient not to exceed the maximum safe operating temperatures. These maximum temperatures are limited by the insulation necessary to insulate the windings.
