Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of double-fed wind driven generator heat dissipation, and especially to an air-air cooling double-fed wind driven generator heat dissipation structure. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the development of the wind power industry, the unit power is getting larger and larger, and the heat dissipation problems of the generator bearing and the stator outlet box are getting more and more prominent. Bearing heat dissipation generally includes grease heat dissipation and bearing outer cover heat dissipation. Small-power generator bearings generally use double-ball structures, that is, one bearing at the driving end and one bearing at the non-driving end, at which time the non-driving end is far away and has poor heat dissipation conditions, and is prone to high temperature. For high-power generator bearing structures, there are generally three bearings, two bearings at the driving end, one ball and one column, and one column bearing at the non-driving end. Due to the difference in structure, the oil path at the driving end is relatively long, and the heat dissipation is much worse than that at the non-driving end, which makes the driving end bearing prone to high temperature. The stator outlet box generates heat during the operation of the generator due to its sealed structure, and the heat dissipation is poor. In addition, the heat inside the motor is also conducted to the inside of the stator outlet box, causing the air temperature inside the stator outlet box to be too high, which in turn causes the cable temperature to be very high. Combined with the special working conditions on site, the high temperature aging of the cable is aggravated, causing the cable to burn out, which affects the normal operation of the motor.

[0003] The existing high temperature of the generator bearing is generally solved by manual greasing, replacing grease, and modifying a new bearing cover, but the practicability is poor, the effect is not obvious, and the problem can only be temporarily solved in a short period of time, and the problem cannot be completely solved. The stator outlet box mainly dissipates heat through the external air, and the efficiency is low, the effect is poor, and only high-grade cables or larger stator outlet boxes can be used, which increases the overall cost and layout difficulty.
