摘要: A stator (302) and a motor (300) including a stator (302). The stator (302) includes a stator hub (306), a plurality of stator teeth (308) extending from the stator hub (306) that define a stator slot (112) having a stator slot base (112a), at least one winding (310) disposed in the stator slot, and one or more oscillating heat pipes (150) disposed at least partially in the at least one winding (310). The at least one winding (310) is held apart from the stator slot base (112a) so that a cooling channel (350) is defined between an inner winding portion of the at least one winding and a portion of the one or more oscillating heat pipes (150) is disposed in the channel (350) so cooling fluid can be passed between the stator slot base (112a) and the inner winding portion to cool the inner winding portion via at least operation of the one or more oscillating heat pipes (150).

摘要: An electric motor system includes an electric motor (10), and a thermal management system (12). The thermal management system (12) includes a two-phase refrigerant circuit (28) circulating a flow of refrigerant through the electric motor (10), and a refrigerant-air heat exchanger (18) fluidly connected to the electric motor (10) via the two-phase refrigerant circuit (28), such that the flow of refrigerant is boiled via heat generated by the electric motor (10), and returned to a subcooled liquid state to cool the electric motor (10). A method of dissipating thermal energy from an electric motor (10) includes urging a flow of refrigerant through an electric motor (10), thereby boiling the flow of refrigerant, directing the flow of refrigerant from the electric motor to a refrigerant-air heat exchanger (18) via a two-phase refrigerant circuit (28), and cooling the refrigerant to a sub-cooled liquid state at the refrigerant-air heat exchanger via thermal energy exchange with a flow of air through the refrigerant-air heat exchanger (28).

摘要: A system and method for providing inerting gas to a protected space. Oxygen is directed from an oxygen source (12) to a motive port (64) of an ejector (18), and air is introduced to a suction port (68) of the ejector. A gas mixture of oxygen and air is directed from an outlet port (73) of the ejector to a reactor, and a reactant is directed from a reactant source (16) to the reactor. Oxygen in the gas mixture is reacted with the reactant to incorporate the oxygen into a non-combustible compound, and an inerting gas comprising the non-combustible compound is directed to the protected space (22).
