2 Importance of cooling in generators Hydroelectric power generation: 50% of the electricity generation in Sweden Modifications to the existing units significant contributions to the total energy production Increased power output more heat generation Thetwolargesourcesofenergylossesinthegenerators: - Thermal: electric resistance in the generator coils - Ventilation: when cooling down the unit Thestatorsshouldbecooledbyairflowingthroughthestatorairchannels Axially cooled generators Pirooz Moradnia, Chalmers/ Applied Mechanics/ Fluid Dynamics 2
3 Experimental test rig A small generator at Uppsala University, Sweden 4coolingchannelrows 108coolingchannelsineachrow - Some channels impossible to access Stator outer casing with 12 openings - 5 openings almost completely blocked 12poles Rotational speed: 500 rpm Innerradiusofthestator:0.365m Outerradiusofthestator:0.437m Pirooz Moradnia, Chalmers/ Applied Mechanics/ Fluid Dynamics 3
4 Modelling in OpenFOAM Geometry: -Aperiodic1/12sector - Generated with blockmesh - Less air blockage than the experimental rig Boundaries: -Noin/outlet Noprescribedmassflow - Extra space for the air recirculation -Massflowgivenbythesolution Solver - OpenFOAM 1.5.x - MRFSimpleFoam(frozenrotorconcept) - LaunderSharmaKE turbulence model - Y + < 10 Pirooz Moradnia, Chalmers/ Applied Mechanics/ Fluid Dynamics 4
