... for each layer of the stator, especially the contact resistances between the impregnation, liner, laminations, and housing. Finally, a sensitivity analysis for each of the critical input parameters is provided. A maximum difference of 4%—for the highest temperature in the slot-winding and the end-winding...

... of the existing studies on electromigration. The simulation results for void generation and time to failure (TTF) are discussed and correlated with the previous test results. EM sensitivity analysis is also performed to investigate the effect of EM parameters and mechanical properties of material...

... considered, the chiller energy use was the biggest fraction of about 41% and was also the most inefficient. The room air conditioning was the second largest energy component and was also the second most inefficient. A sensitivity analysis of plant and chiller energy efficiencies with chiller set point...

... designed by the central composite design method. In addition, a sensitivity analysis, the so-called analysis of variance, for the design factors has been performed. Among the influencing parameters, the jet Reynolds number dominates the thermal performance, while the Grashof number is found to have...
