In at least one embodiment, the liquid circulation system comprises

Tank, liquid circulation system and operating method

A rotor for a synchronous reluctance machine includes a rotor core having a plurality of magnetically conductive laminations stacked in a rotor axial direction. The magnetically conductive laminations include cut-out portions forming a plurality of flux barriers radially alternated by flux paths portions, where at least one of the flux barriers includes a ridge connecting two flux paths portions adjacent to the at least one flux barrier. The at least one flux barrier has a first barrier mid-line, which is a line that is equidistant from both sides of the at least one flux barrier. The bridge has a second bridge mid-line, which is the line that is equidistant from both sides of the bridge. The first and second mid-lines intersect. The bridge has a first and second symmetry axis and is non-symmetrical with respect to at least one of the first and second symmetry axis.

A rotor for a synchronous reluctance machine having an even number 2 p of poles circumferentially spaced at an angle &#x3b1;, with &#x3b1;=2 &#x3c0;/2 p, the rotor comprising a substantially cylindrical laminate stack having a plurality of magnetically conductive laminations. One or more of the magnetically conductive laminations includes non-magnetic flux barriers which are spaced from each other in the radial direction, one or more of the non-magnetic flux barriers having a first and second bridge transversally positioned in correspondence of their lateral ends and defining a first and a second air-gap with the outer rim of the magnetically conductive lamination, and further including a third and a fourth bridge transversally positioned and respectively defining together with the first and second bridge a first and a second internal space which are filled with an electrically conductive and non-magnetically conductive material.

Rotor for rotating electric machine

An end structure for a rotor of an electric machine is attachable to an end of the rotor. The end structure includes a ring arrangement, a rotational axis of which is parallel to that of the stacked rotor, and at least one reinforcing structure at least partly within the ring arrangement. A value of a tensile strength of the at least one reinforcing structure is higher than that of the ring arrangement.

End structure of rotor of electric machine and manufacturing method thereof

A protection arrangement of an electric machine which includes a plurality of solid elements layered one after another between a terminal box and a stator of the electric machine. Each of the solid elements includes a cable hole, and the cable holes are arranged to at least partially overlap with each other in order to have a cable channel of the successive cable holes through the solid elements. At least a part of the solid elements are adjustable in a radial direction of the cable channel for making a diameter of the cable channel equal to or smaller than a diameter of the electric cable input in the cable channel in response to adjustment in the radial direction. The protection arrangement comprises a locking mechanism which immobilizes the at least part of solid elements.

Protection arrangement and protection method

A stack of a rotor comprises a plurality of stack elements which include material of first magnetic conductance. The rotor includes sectorial sections distributed round a rotational axis of the rotor. Each of the stack elements has an aperture of second magnetic conductance in each of the sectorial sections. Outer ends of the apertures are located at a rim of the stack elements or at a bridge of the rim. The apertures form channels through the stack in a direction of a rotational axis of the rotor. At least two of the apertures of a common channel of the channels have the outer ends at different radial distances from the rotational axis of the rotor.

Rotor of electric machine and manufacturing method thereof

The invention relates to a rotor for a synchronous reluctance electric machine. It includes a stack of consecutive magnetically conductive core elements; each core element includes at least two adjacent sectorial sections with flux barriers and a central area surrounding the rotational axis. A binding structure includes core end plates which form together with interconnection casts a unitary casted structure. The interconnection casts are casted into channels extending through the stack and which are located in an area defined by the flux barriers of the adjacent sectorial sections and the central area of each core element.

A rotor for an electric machine, wherein the rotor comprises a plurality of stack elements and each of the stack elements includes material of first magnetic conductance. Each of the stack elements includes a plurality of sectorial sections distributed round a rotational axis of the rotor. Each of the sectorial sections includes one or more flux barriers. At least one of the one or more flux barriers has a difference associated with filing of an electrically conductive material of third magnetic conductance in different sectorial halves of a common sectorial section, the first magnetic conductance being larger than the third magnetic conductance.
