AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing traction motor cooling duct designs suffer from high duct resistance, high fan static pressure requirements, and uneven airflow. It is difficult to directly measure airflow through numerical simulation, which makes fan selection and duct optimization challenging.

Method used

Design a test air duct for traction motors, including a main air duct connection section, an air volume adjustment section, first and second traction motor air ducts, a guide section, and an inlet pressure measuring section. By adjusting the guide section and the air volume adjustment section, the air duct resistance and air volume distribution are optimized. Combined with the static pressure measured by the inlet pressure measuring section, the parameters of the appropriate cooling fan are determined.

Benefits of technology

It achieves reduced duct resistance, uniform airflow at the outlet, accurate measurement of static pressure, determination of suitable cooling fan parameters, optimization of fan selection, and reduction of system noise and auxiliary power consumption.
