Design Motor Cooling Systems with Motor-CAD and Simscape

 Explore this demonstration to see how cooling systems can boost a motor's performance, efficiency, and safety. Find out how Ansys Motor-CAD enables the evaluation of diverse cooling strategies and facilitates the integration of thermal models into Simulink and Simscape, allowing for a holistic approach to system design and performance optimization.

Key takeaways include:

- Thermal design is critical and non-trivial.

- Cooling strategies determine machine continuous performance.

- Integrating system models enables holistic design optimization.

- You can import Motor-CAD thermal models to Simulink.
