Cooling Circuit Connections

The Cooling Circuit Connections options allow the different cooling systems to be coupled together so that the outlet temperature and flow rate of one cooling system becomes the inlet temperature and flow rate of another cooling system.

Wet Rotor Outlet -> Rotor WJ Inlet

This option is only available when the model has both wet rotor and rotor water jacket cooling enabled.

When this option is selected then the wet rotor and rotor water jacket flows are connected in series. The Rotor Water Jacket flow rate is the flow rate of the Wet Rotor and the Rotor Water Jacket Inlet temperature is the Wet Rotor Outlet Temperature.

Shaft Spiral Groove Outlet -> Slot WJ Inlet

This option is only available when the model has both shaft spiral groove and slot water jacket cooling enabled.

When this option is selected then the Shaft Spiral Groove and slot water jacket flows are connected in series. The Slot Water Jacket flow rate is the flow rate of the Shaft Spiral Groove and the Slot Water Jacket Inlet temperature is the Shaft Spiral Groove Outlet Temperature.

Housing WJ Outlet -> Spray Cooling Inlet

This option is only available when the model has both housing water jacket and spray cooling enabled.

When this option is selected then the Housing Water Jacket and spray cooling flows are connected in series. The Spray Cooling flow rate is the flow rate of the Housing Water Jacket and the Spray Cooling Inlet temperature is the Housing Water Jacket Outlet Temperature.

Housing WJ Outlet -> Rotor WJ Inlet

This option is only available when the model has both housing water jacket and rotor water jacket enabled.

When this option is selected then the Housing Water Jacket and rotor water jacket flows are connected in series. The rotor water jacket flow rate is the flow rate of the Housing Water Jacket and the rotor water jacket Inlet temperature is the Housing Water Jacket Outlet Temperature.

Wet Rotor airgap inlet || Slot WJ Inlet

This option is only available when the model has both wet rotor and slot water jacket enabled.

When this option is selected then the airgap and slot water jacket flows are connected in parallel.

TVent airgap inlet || Slot WJ Inlet

This option is only available when the model has both through ventilation and slot water jacket enabled.

When this option is selected then the airgap and slot water jacket flows are connected in parallel.

TVent Outlet -> Housing WJ Inlet

When this option is selected then the through ventilation and housing water jacket flows are connected in series. The housing jacket flow rate is the flow rate of the through ventilation and the housing water jacket Inlet temperature is the through ventilation Outlet Temperature.

Note: not all connection options are currently available. Please contact technical support if you require another connection possiblity.
