Summary for: Slot1 < StatorSlotShape

Class summary

Slot1 Basic stator slot shape.

Slot dimensions (fields of the dimensions struct):

  • hslot_s : total slot height (airgap to slot bottom) (m)
  • wtooth_s : tooth width (m). Prefentially used.
  • wslot_s : slot width (m). Used if wtooth s_ not given.
  • wslot_s_bottom : (OPTIONAL) Slot bottom width. Default: wslot_s.
  • r_slotbottom_s : slot bottom corner fillet radius.
  • htt_s : Total tooth-tip / slot opening height.
  • htt_taper_s : Airgap to tooth-tip taper distance. Or, slot opening height.
  • wso_s : Airgap to tooth-tip taper distance.
  • stator_slot_opening_type : “high” (default) or “low”; how far the winding window extends towards the slot opening

(OPTIONAL) Mesh density parameters:

  • lcar_slot : characteristic length for slot top
  • lcar_slot_bottom : ditto for slot bottom

Object properties to set:

  • slot_bottom_type : ‘line’ or ‘arc’

** NOTE This class overloads the surface_to_parent_frame method for RadialGeometry geometries and radial layer orientations, in an attempt to maintain solid conductor placement.

Properties

.Slot1/N_layers is a property.

.has_opening Does the slot have a slot opening

this.has_opening is true if the slot shape as a slot opening (either real or all-steel virtual surface), and thus this.airgap_surface_curves is non-empty. If this.has_opening is false, then the slot does not touch the airgap at all, and all its surfaces appear as holes in the parent surface. Help for Slot1/has_opening is inherited from superclass SlotShapeBase

.Slot1/layer_orientation is a property.

.Slot1/parent_type is a property.

.Slot1/slot_bottom_type is a property.

.Slot1/slot_opening_type is a property.

.Slot1/slot_shape is a property.
