AI Technical Summary
When the bearing cooler of the hydropower station unit is in operation for a long time, it is prone to blockage of the water circulation path due to impurities and microorganisms in the natural water bodies of the river, affecting the heat exchange of the cooler and the safe and stable operation of the bearing equipment of the generator unit.
An anti-blocking water guide cooler is designed, and the cooling water is filtered using a filter box and a filter plate to ensure that impurities have been removed before the cooling water enters the cooler, thereby avoiding the cooler clogging.
By filtering the cooling water, the cooler is effectively prevented from being blocked, ensuring the heat exchange efficiency of the cooler and the safe and stable operation of the bearing equipment of the generator set.

[0002] Most hydropower stations use the natural conditions of the river to build a dam, and then install the generator set behind the dam or in the water retaining buildings on both sides. Currently, most hydropower stations use the water in the river in the area where the power station is located to cool the bearing lubricating oil of the unit. The bearing lubricating oil and cooling water complete heat exchange in the bearing cooler installed on the periphery of the turbine generator set, and then return to the unit bearing, thereby ensuring the safe operation of the unit.
[0003] The common design structure of the bearing cooler is that there are partitions at both ends and multiple cooling pipes in the middle. The cooling pipes are expanded in the partitions with a certain thickness to ensure that the lubricating oil circulation path and the cooling water circulation path are relatively independent. Once the two are mixed, it may affect the safety of the unit bearings or pollute the river water.
[0004] At present, when the bearing cooler of the hydropower station unit is in use, the natural water body of the river contains various impurities and microorganisms (such as clams). When the equipment is in long-term operation, the water circulation path of the cooler is easily blocked by debris, affecting the heat exchange of the cooler and threatening the safe and stable operation of the bearing equipment of the generator unit. Utility Model Content
