Abstract
The steady state temperatures of a conventional, 15 HP electric motor were compared to those of a rotating-heat-pipe cooled motor under identical loading conditions. Fourteen thermocouples were used to measure temperatures at various locations within the motor. Seven of these were placed in rotating parts of the motor and were recorded through a mercury slip ring unit. Tests were made with the electric motor in its original configuration (i.e. with a solid shaft),with its solid shaft replaced by a rotating heat pipe, and with this heat pipe unit containing segmented external fins to increase air cooling. The modifications did not show a decrease of motor temperatures. This was probably due to a lack of cooling air through the motor casing. Recommendations for future work are included.

    Temperature rise induced by a rotating or dithering laser beam 

    Zhou, Hong (2011);
    We study the maximum temperature rise induced by a rotating or dithering Gaussian laser beam on a semi-infinite body. An analytical solution is obtained by solving the transient three-dimensional heat equation in a ...

    A computer code for rapid calculation of bending frequencies of rotor blades 

    Akin, Hakki E. (Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2002-09);
    This thesis provides a MATLAB (copyright) code and graphical user interface (GUI) which rapidly estimates the bending frequencies of rotating beams from the knowledge of bending frequencies of nonrotating beams. The approach ...

    Numerical Solution for a Transient Temperature Distribution on a Finite Domain Due to a Dithering or Rotating Laser Beam 

    Tan, Tsuwei; Zhou, Hong (2013);
    The temperature distribution due to a rotating or dithering Gaussian laser beam on a finite body is obtained numerically. The authors apply various techniques to solve the nonhomogeneous heat equation in different spatial ...
