Back-iron extension thermal benefits for electrical machines with concentrated windings

This paper proposes a novel, low-cost, effective way to improve the thermal performance of electrical machines by extending a part of the back-iron into the slot. This modification helps in reducing the thermal resistance path from the center of the slot to the coolant, however its thermal benefits...
