Abstract

IPMOT is the integrated propulsion motor designed for an individual self-driven container rail platform wagon developed in the "integrated standard transport unit" research and development project, supported by the European Commission. The paper presents the study of the motor and the converter temperatures, at rated and overload working conditions. The problem is afforded using both the simulation (FEM and lumped parameters models) and the experimental approaches. For this purpose a dedicated experimental set up has been designed and realised
