SPEED TUTORIAL B05 1 July 2011 Slot fill factors in PC-BDC Objective To introduce the definition of slot-fill factor and explain how slot-fill factor is calculated. To show how slot-fill factor can be used as an input or an output parameter in PC-BDC. Background Slot-fill is a measure of the amount of copper in the slots of an electrical machine. Generally speaking, the higher the slot-fill, the higher the efficiency. But it is not easy to achieve a high slot-fill in manufacturing. For these reasons the slot-fill factor is an important parameter that somehow links the level of manufacturing difficulty with the machine performance.
