Determine for an activation energy of E=0.74 eV the slope E/K and for the additional temperature rise △T_h=3=6.6 °C (see Application Example 6.2 with T_{amb}=40°, T_2=T_{rat}=100 °C) the reduced lifetime of a single-phase induction motor.
The slope (E / K) \text { is } E / K=8.58 \cdot 10^3 kelvin. Thus one obtains from t_1=40 e^{-8.58 \cdot 10^3 \Delta T_h / 373\left(373+\Delta T_h\right)}, \text { with } \Delta T_{h=3}=6.6^{\circ} \mathrm{C}, a reduced lifetime of \left.t_1\right|_{\Delta T_{\mathrm{h}-3}=6.6^{\circ} \mathrm{C}}=26.81 \text { years. }
