TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of generators, in particular to a hydrogen-cooled generator lead-out line cooling air path structure and cooling method. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the prior art, there are two kinds of ventilation cooling air path structures:
[0003] One is a full copper bar annular lead-out line structure, which adopts an external cooling type ventilation cooling air path, that is, the entire lead-out line exchanges heat with the cooling medium hydrogen through the insulating surface, thereby achieving the goal of cooling the lead-out line. When designing the annular lead-out line, the cross section of the copper bar needs to be optimized, the copper bar current density needs to be reduced, and the influences of the skin effect of the copper bar, the lead-out line ring proximity effect, the insulating thickness of the copper bar surface, the heat dissipation area of the insulating surface, and the ventilation air volume of the lead-out line, etc. are comprehensively considered. The annular lead-out line is supported by an insulating support, the lead-out lines are wrapped with a pad and impregnated with felt to be tightly packed, and the lead-out lines are fixed by winding a binding rope, so as to ensure that the annular lead-out line and the pad do not loosen or displace, and the entire end part becomes a firm whole.
[0004] Another is a copper bar + copper pipe structure annular lead-out line structure, which mainly adopts internal cooling and auxiliary external cooling, and the lead-out sleeve internal cooling, and finally the copper pipe lead-out line and the lead-out line are combined to form a single parallel cooling air path structure: the structure is suitable for large-capacity units, the arrangement of the copper bar and the copper pipe can reduce the distance between the copper bar and the copper pipe, reduce the influences of the proximity effect and the skin effect, and reduce the loss, wherein the connecting line adopts a copper bar structure, the remaining tubular annular lead-out line and the transition lead-out line adopt a copper pipe structure, the copper pipe is bent from high-conductivity oxygen-free copper pipe, the surfaces of the copper bar and the copper pipe are wrapped with an insulating layer with a thickness of about 2-5 mm, and the lead-out part is an epoxy composite insulating sleeve.
[0005] However, with the further breakthrough of the full hydrogen-cooled unit capacity, on the one hand, the current flowing through the tubular annular lead-out line and the stator lead-out line further increases, the influences of the proximity effect and the skin effect further highlight, and the loss of the tubular annular lead-out line and the stator lead-out line sharply rises, and on the other hand, considering the increase of the pitch circle of the annular lead-out line, the length of the copper pipe annular lead-out line significantly increases, the problem of the long cooling air path of the annular lead-out line is increasingly prominent, the temperature of the copper pipe annular lead-out line is relatively high, and even the local temperature of the lead-out line ring at the air outlet exceeds the allowable temperature of the F insulating grade, so a new ventilation cooling air path needs to be adopted to solve the problem of the excessively high temperature rise of the lead-out line.
