Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of power generation equipment, and in particular to a two-stage opposed magnetic suspension turbine generator. Background Art

[0002] The magnetic levitation generator is a power recovery machine that uses the electromagnetic force provided by electromagnetic bearings to keep the rotor motion trajectory within a certain limit. Compared with traditional mechanical shafts, magnetic levitation bearings have a long service life, low friction, and low noise. Due to their dynamic adjustment of bearing stiffness and damping, they support a wide speed range and can provide a reliable operating environment for turbine rotating machinery.

[0003] However, since the electromagnetic bearings continuously have current input to maintain stability and the generator generates a lot of heat, the temperature rise of the rotor will also increase with the increase in power generation. When its temperature is too high, it will cause the magnets to demagnetize, so the rotor also needs to be cooled.

[0004] For example, in the prior art, CN107476833A discloses a zero-leakage self-cooling magnetically suspended turbine expansion generator and system and method. In the patent, the expansion medium gas path is built-in, and the stator and rotor of the generator are cooled by using the gas medium, so as to achieve the purpose of cooling the generator. However, directly passing the medium through the rotor and stator will cause excessive flow resistance of the medium, and the high-speed moving airflow will increase the wind friction loss of the rotor.

[0005] In view of this, the present invention provides a two-stage opposed magnetic levitation turbine generator which can reduce rotor wear and lower temperature. Summary of the invention

[0032] One side of the rotor 17 is connected to the first-stage turbine impeller 3, and the other side is connected to the second-stage turbine moving blades 14 through the second-stage turbine impeller cover 15. A hollow flow channel is provided in the rotor 17, and both sides of the hollow flow channel are connected to the first-stage impeller flow channel and the second-stage impeller flow channel.

[0033] In a specific embodiment, the first-stage turbine impeller cover 4 and the first-stage turbine volute 1 together form a first-stage impeller flow channel, in which a first-stage turbine impeller 3 is arranged, and the second-stage turbine impeller cover 15 is connected to the rotor 17 and the second-stage turbine moving blades 14 to form a complete impeller structure, and the first-stage turbine nozzle 2 is used to convert the static pressure of the incoming gas into dynamic pressure, and the rotor 17 is hollow and can pass the airflow; the high-pressure gas enters from the first-stage volute inlet on the first-stage turbine volute 1, and then evenly sprays toward the first-stage turbine nozzle 2, and the gas is accelerated to reduce pressure in the first-stage turbine nozzle 2 and enters the first-stage impeller flow channel, and then pushes the first-stage turbine impeller 3 to rotate, and the first-stage turbine impeller 3 converts the dynamic pressure of the incoming gas into rotational kinetic energy, so that the pressure and temperature of the incoming gas are reduced, and at the same time drives the rotor 17 to rotate to output electrical energy through the generator. , and the low-temperature airflow flowing out of the first-stage turbine impeller 3 enters the hollow flow channel of the rotor 17 to cool the rotor 17, ensuring that the rotor 17 will not be overheated and cause the magnets on the rotor 17 to be demagnetized. At the same time, the high-speed gas is expanded and compressed, and finally the gas enters the second-stage impeller flow channel from the hollow flow channel in the rotor 17. The second-stage turbine static blades 13 in the flow channel accelerate the gas flow channel, and push the second-stage turbine moving blades 14 to expand and heat up, and finally the airflow converges in the second-stage turbine volute 12.

[0039] Furthermore, the axial stator 8 further includes a thrust plate 7 , which is disposed inside the axial stator 8 and fixedly connected to the rotor 17 .

[0041] Furthermore, it also includes auxiliary bearings 6 , and two auxiliary bearings 6 are fixed on the rotor 17 and close to the outer side of the axial stator 8 .

[0045] In a specific embodiment, the primary flow guide cover 5 and the secondary flow guide cover 16 are used to provide sealing for the primary impeller flow channel and the secondary impeller flow channel respectively to prevent gas leakage when entering the primary impeller flow channel and the secondary impeller flow channel.

[0046] Furthermore, it also includes a cooling water jacket 11 , which is fixed to the outside of the casing body 18 .
