Abstract

The loss of outer rotor permanent magnet synchronous motor is mainly distributed in the stator core and windings, and the heat is difficult to dissipate. A commonly used cooling method is to inject cooling oil into the air gap, but it will increase the weight and friction loss of the motor, so the cooling oil will not fill the entire air gap, resulting in cooling difficulties in the part not immersed in the cooling oil and uneven distribution of stator temperature. Therefore, in this paper a low-speed outer rotor permanent magnet motor structure with rotor oil storage slots is proposed, which can dissipate heat with oil cooling. Through the fluid field analysis model, the air gap fluid field is simulated respectively, and the influence of oil storage slots on the air gap refrigerant distribution under different rotating speeds is compared and analyzed. In order to improve the calculation speed and simulation accuracy, a simulation method combining the transient fluid field with the steady-state temperature field is proposed. Based on the oil distribution obtained from the transient fluid field analysis, the temperature field of the motor is simulated and analyzed, and the improvement effect of the oil storage slots on the temperature field distribution of the motor is verified.
