Influence of different impregnation methods and resins on thermal behavior and lifetime of electrical stators

摘要

The relationship between impregnation process and winding temperature has not been analyzed in detail yet. Therefore, one purpose of this paper is to investigate the correlation between impregnation process, resin absorption, applied resin, and thermal behavior. Apart from thermal behavior, it has to be ensured that the lifetime of the manufactured electrical machines still meets industrial specifications. The lifetime is primarily affected by the quality of the insulation system. So the second purpose of this paper is to investigate the influence of the named aspects on the lifetime of an electrical machine.
