IPS’ vast experience in generator design minimizes the time from concept
to prototype. Mechanical designs are created using SolidWorks solid modeling
software. Extensive stress, thermal, and rotor dynamics analyses are
performed using ANSYS. Generator test data is always correlated with the
analysis, continuously improving the accuracy of our analysis.
Unique cooling solutions and improved winding techniques have been a
trademark of the IPS design team. IPS currently has a patent for oil cooling
of generator rotors (US patent #6,661,133 B2), which allows our generators
to operate in hot environments. This patented design and other cooling
innovations are used in current IPS generators to achieve high power densities, small size, and low weight.

Electrical Engineering:
IPS Electrical Engineering is experienced in the design of power
conversion, conditioning, and control systems such as GCUs,
TRUs, PDUs, ELCUs, and converters including VSCF.
Electromagnetic designs are performed using IPS’ proprietary
software program, which embodies 40 years of empirical
experience in generator design. Hierarchical system level
designs are created using Orcad software package, from the
top level down to the individual components. Magnetics, analog
and digital designs are simulated at both system and component
levels using Multisim, Ansoft, and PSpice software programs,
ensuring successful system integration.
