Motor Hot-Spot Estimator

Estimate the unseen hot-spot temperature inside a motor winding using post-shutdown data. Provide the sensor cool-down trace and an estimated heat-capacitance ratio to reconstruct the hot spot.

Inputs

Ambient Temperature (°C) ?

Hot-Spot Thermal Mass Ratio (C_h/C_s) ?

Enter an estimated ratio (start near 0.3 for concentrated copper hot spots).

Time Units ?

Sensor Time Series (time, temperature) ?

Key Results

Paste your sensor data and press Calculate.

Visualization

Run a calculation to render the measured and reconstructed temperature curves.

Underlying Principles

The two-node thermal network is summarised here once Pyodide loads the python documentation.
