This National Science Foundation (NSF) Integrative Activities (CFDA 47.083) project grant award to the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville aims to develop and demonstrate an immersion-cooled, 3D-printed stator technology for high-specific-power electric motors, specifically an interior permanent magnet synchronous motor. The $255,963 project, running from January 1, 2025 to December 31, 2026, will explore three key areas: (1) establishing a performance baseline using traditional motor windings with oil immersion cooling, (2) demonstrating improved cooling with additively manufactured windings designed for high-slot-density and enhanced surface area, and (3) validating long-term motor reliability through predictive maintenance enabled by real-time monitoring. The project will collaborate with NASA Glenn Research Center to advance the development of efficient, reliable motors for urban air mobility vehicles, potentially transforming urban transportation, reducing emissions, and boosting the aerospace industry in Arkansas. The project will also foster interdisciplinary collaborations and provide educational outreach, including training a Ph.D. student and involving undergraduates in the research.
