REDUCTION OF THE ELECTRICAL RESISTANCE FOR AN ELECTRIC MACHINE HAVING WINDINGS ARRANGED IN GROOVES

摘要

An electric machine has grooves and windings, divided into strands, of electrical conductors. At least one strand has a number s of coils connected in series and arranged in the grooves. Each coil has sub-conductors connected in parallel and arranged in bundles. Each bundle is arranged in a groove at a bundle position relative to a deepest possible bundle position in the groove. The positions of all bundles in all coils define a number b of possible bundle positions of the strand. The bundles are interchanged between the coils such that each bundle is arranged in the grooves at least n times and at most n′times at each possible bundle position, wherein n is the integer quotient in regard to the quotient of the number s and the number b, wherein n′=n if s is divisible by b and n′=n+1 if s is not divisible by b.
