... blade row) was selected with rotor and stator blade number kept constant. A generic undersea vehicle hull shape was chosen and the maximum shroud radius was required to lie within this body radius. A cylindrical rim-driven electric motor capable of generating a specific horsepower to achieve the design...

...Gianluca Iaccarino; Stéphane Moreau The Cartesian incompressible RANS solver with immersed boundaries, IBRANS , recently developed at Stanford, has been extended to include conjugate heat transfer modeling and used for the simulation of the electrical motor of an automotive engine cooling fan...

...A. Behzadmehr; Y. Mercadier; N. Galanis Centrifugal fans with an electric motor included in the hub are commonly used in HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) systems. A design of experiments (DOE) has been performed to study the effect of the entrance conditions of a backward-inclined...
