Zusammenfassung:An electrical submersible pumping system (ESP) for use in pumping fluids from a wellbore. The ESP includes fins on an outer portion of the ESP that transfer heat from a motor in the ESP to fluid flowing past the fins. A self removing material is provided over the fins when the ESP is deployed into the wellbore to protect the fins against being damaged when the ESP contacts a wall of the wellbore. The material can corrode, erode, melt, dissolve, disintegrate, or otherwise automatically decouple from the fins when the ESP is disposed in the wellbore.
