Flow rate
The coolant flow required to maintain the rated torque is defined in
chapter 4, Technical Data.
The specification of this value is based on a rise of the coolant
temperature by 10 K.
Figures 9-12 and 9-13 are used to determine the necessary coolant flow
for different temperature rises and/or different coolants:

Assuming the same flow rate, you can estimate the reduction of the
allowable motor torque when using coolants other than using formula in
Fig. 9-14.

Pressure drop
The flow resistance at the pipe walls, curves, and changes of the cross-
section produce a pressure drop along the traversed components (see
Fig. 9-9).
The pressure drop, p, rises as the flow quantity rises (see Fig. 9-15).
