Abstract

The objective of this survey is to evolve a better understanding of the complex thermal interactions inside a motor spindle. Therefore, the thermal behavior is investigated based on a simulation model and experiments. In contrast to existing simulation models, which either performed a complex thermal examination or an elaborate flow-mechanical analysis, a thermal (Finite Element Method) and fluid mechanical (Computational Fluid Dynamics) coupled simulation model was developed. Based on a comparative analysis, the usability of the currently available boundary conditions is scrutinized.
