In one embodiment, the invention provides a generator rotor comprising: a rotor shaft including an internal conductive bore; a main terminal electrically connected to the conductive bore; a plurality of rotor coil windings, including a plurality of coil end straps; a non-metallic support channel comprising: an elongate, axially-oriented channel; and at least one protrusion extending from the elongate, axially-oriented channel to a position between two of the plurality of coil end straps; and a main lead extending from the main terminal, through the elongate, axially-oriented channel of the non-metallic support channel, to at least one of the plurality of coil end straps.
摘要:
Resin-impregnated sheet materials, such as fabrics, films, paper and tapes, for forming electrical insulation that exhibits significantly improved voltage endurance performance. The present invention finds particular use as groundwall insulation for high voltage generator stator bars, in which the groundwall insulation is formed by mica tape filled with submicron particles of silicon dioxide, aluminum oxide, titanium dioxide and/or zirconium dioxide, in combination with an unfilled mica tape impregnated with the same or compatible resin binder. The filled tape is preferably in the form of a mica paper having at least one woven fabric on at least one of its surfaces, a resin binder permeating the mica paper and woven fabric so as to bond the woven fabric to the mica paper, and oxide particles dispersed in the woven fabric.

An end winding (10) of a high voltage air-cooled ac generator or motor is made more resistant to surface deterioration by corona activity by using a paint whose binder contains at least 20% by weight silicone. An end winding, including its insulated conductors and separator and support structures, are coated with the paint whose composition includes a solvent or thinner, optional pigments, and the binder containing at least 20% by weight silicone. The balance (if any) of the binder can be, for example, an alkyd, acrylic, phenolic or epoxy resin.
摘要:
A high voltage generator armature bar (10) that exhibits improved performance by forming one or more of its conductive components from a conductive material that uses a tin oxide-based composition as a conductive filler. The armature bar (10) is of the type having one or more tiers of conductor strands (12), strand insulation (14), conductive internal grading (20), groundwall insulation (22), conductive slot armoring (24), and preferably a transposition filler (18). The conductive internal grading (20), the conductive slot armoring (24) and/or the transposition filler (18) contain a conductive filler of antimony-doped tin oxide that may constitute the entire conductive filler, or can be present as a shell on the filler particles.
摘要:
An electrical machine includes a stator having a radically inwardly directed duct adjacent the center of the machine for flowing cooling medium into the gap between the stator and rotor. The rotor includes radial or diagonal ducts having scoops for directing flow generally radically inwardly to cool the field windings in the center of the machine. The cooling medium flows either into subslots for radial or diagonal outward flow through outlet ducts for return to the gap.

Methods and apparatus for assembling a wind turbine generator are provided. The wind turbine generator includes a core and a plurality of stator windings circumferentially spaced about a generator longitudinal axis, a rotor rotatable about the generator longitudinal axis wherein the rotor includes a plurality of magnetic elements coupled to a radially outer periphery of the rotor such that an airgap is defined between the stator windings and the magnetic elements and the plurality of magnetic elements including a radially inner periphery having a first diameter. The wind turbine generator also includes a bearing including a first member in rotatable engagement with a radially inner second member, the first member including a radially outer periphery, a diameter of the radially outer periphery of the first member being substantially equal to the first diameter, the rotor coupled to the stator through the bearing such that a substantially uniform airgap is maintained.

An approach for cooling a stator core flange is provided. In one aspect, a pair of stator flanges each disposed at opposing ends of a stator core assembly maintains a compressive load on the stator core assembly. Heat transport tubes may be located about at least one of the stator flanges at an end of the stator core assembly to redistribute heat therefrom.
