[0002] Description

[0003] Dynamo-electric machine with a cooling system

[0004] The invention relates to a dynamo-electric machine with a cooling system.

[0005] Dynamoelectric machines generate losses during their operation, which must be dissipated to ensure proper operation of the dynamoelectric machine.

[0006] To dissipate the losses, various cooling principles with a wide variety of cooling media are used, such as gas, especially air, or liquids, especially water.

[0007] For cooling dynamoelectric machines, mainly shaft-mounted (self-ventilation) or external fans (external ventilation) are used.

[0008] Slow-running dynamoelectric machines are usually cooled by fans with a comparatively large diameter, which are located inside the housing of the dynamoelectric machines on the DE or NDE side and are directly coupled to the shaft.

[0009] In closed dynamoelectric machines, there is an internal closed cooling circuit (primary circuit) in which air or another cooling medium is circulated. This cooling medium from the primary circuit can be recooled in a heat exchanger (secondary circuit).

[0010] Based on this, the invention aims to provide an efficient cooling system, in particular a closed dynamoelectric machine.

[0011] The problem can be solved by the characteristics of an independent claim. 202405671

[0012] Advantageous configurations can be found in the dependent claims.

[0013] In the dynamoelectric rotary machine according to the invention, which has a stator arranged in a frame, the openings of the frame can be partially closed at least on one side. On the other sides, these openings are generally closed, e.g., by means of sheet metal elements, and thus form a closed or partially closed housing.

[0014] The stator, which comprises a laminated core, is provided with a winding system arranged in axially extending grooves of the stator's laminated core and forming winding heads at the stator's end faces. These winding heads are positioned by arranging the stator, preferably within the frame, in a section of the frame that is preferably designed with a streamlined profile.

[0015] A rotor, arranged coaxially to the stator and spaced from it by an air gap, is rotatably mounted via DE and NDE bearings located in the frame. The rotor has a laminated core that is non-rotatably connected to a shaft. The rotor can be designed as a squirrel-cage rotor or as a rotor equipped with permanent magnets.

[0016] The laminated cores of the stator and / or rotor can each have axially and / or radially extending cooling channels.

[0017] On the side of the frame where the open frame openings are located, a top-mounted cooler is provided. The frame openings correspond to the top-mounted cooler openings arranged on one side of the cooler in such a way that cooling circuits of a cooling system for the dynamo-electric machine can be adjusted, the cooling system forming a primary circuit and a secondary circuit. The frame openings and 202405671

[0018] 3. The top-mounted cooler openings face each other. A fan assembly is arranged axially outside a frame, in axial extension of the shaft and axially outside the NDE bearing.

[0019] In a dynamo-electric rotary machine, such as a motor, there is an A-side (drive end; DE side), one end of which has output elements and / or a driven machine (generally shaft attachments) and can be mechanically coupled to these directly or indirectly. The B-side (non-drive end; NDE side) of the motor is located at the other axial shaft end and faces away from the DE side.

[0020] The primary circuit, regardless of whether the ventilation is one- or two-sided (Z- or X-ventilation), refers to a gaseous cooling flow, in particular an air flow or air flow distribution, within the dynamo-electric machine. This flow passes over and / or around and / or through components of the machine, including stator, short-circuit rings of rotor, magnetically conductive bodies of stator and / or rotor (e.g., laminated cores or partial laminated cores), conductors, at least housing sections, bearing shields and bearings, and is designed as a closed circuit (internal cooling circuit) that has no flow-related contact with the outside.

[0021] The airflow of the primary circuit is generated by one or more in-house fans and / or external fans by pushing or sucking outside the housing of the dynamo-electric machine.

[0022] A secondary circuit is a cooling flow, liquid cooling flow (e.g., water-based) or gaseous cooling flow (e.g., air-based) in the chiller, which is thermally coupled to the cooling flow of the primary circuit and can therefore cool it back. The cooling flow or cooling flow distribution, especially the air in the secondary circuit, is generated by internal and / or external fans or corresponding pumps under pressure or suction conditions. 202405671

[0023] 4

[0024] Preferably, the secondary circuit is open, meaning it is operated with ambient air, which is drawn in from the surroundings, heated by the medium of the primary circuit, and then released back into the environment. This allows a dynamo-electric machine equipped with such a top-mounted cooler to be installed in almost any location. Filter mats or air filters for heavily contaminated air may need to be installed upstream of the secondary circuit.

[0025] In this process, each airflow of both the primary and secondary circuits can divide, at least section by section, into parallel flow paths within its flow path, particularly during heat exchange between the primary and secondary circuits. This is advantageously achieved by means of guide devices in the dynamo-electric machine and / or in a secondary circuit designed as an add-on cooler, in order to optimize the cooling effect of the flow from the primary and / or secondary circuits.

[0026] The reduced axial distance between the DE and NDE bearings results in a shorter frame length, and this comparatively smaller bearing spacing is also advantageous when constructing the foundations of the dynamo-electric machine. Furthermore, the simplified access to the fan assembly, now mounted outside the frame, is beneficial, for example, for maintenance purposes.

[0027] The electrical leads to the stator winding system can now simply be routed to the DE or NDE side.

[0028] This arrangement of the DE and NDE bearings allows the axial movement of the rotor to be increased depending on customer requirements.

[0029] The cooling at the winding heads on the end faces of the sheet metal stack is improved by means of the fan arrangement according to the invention, especially due to the now direct airflow 202405671.

[0030] 5 of the stator. This is particularly advantageous with X-ventilation, which will be discussed later.

[0031] This arrangement of the DE and NDE bearings according to the invention, and thus also the axial shift of the fan weight behind the NDE bearing, results in reduced rotor deflection and a corresponding improvement in rotor dynamics. The rotor dynamics are further improved by the fact that the axial bearing spacing can now be shortened.

[0032] The DE side and the work machines attached there are not affected by maintenance work etc. on the fan arrangement on the NDE side.

[0033] Using the design according to the invention, all conceivable cooling systems can be implemented, such as IC81W, IC611, etc.

[0034] The key difference compared to known solutions lies, among other things, in the design of the housing unit. With a shortened axial bearing spacing, different heat exchanger types in the secondary circuit of the top-mounted cooler and optimized airflow distribution in the primary circuit within the frame ensure efficient cooling of the dynamo-electric rotary machine. This is further enhanced by additional guide elements in the area of ​​the winding heads, etc.

[0035] The required cooling gas flows (in open circuits (such as the secondary circuit) and closed circuits (such as the primary circuit)) and / or the delivery of these cooling gas flows can be achieved by internal and / or external fans in the fan assembly located axially outside the NDE bearing. It is advantageous if the fan assembly comprises two fans, in particular one fan for the primary circuit and a second fan for the secondary circuit on one side of the machine, especially the NDE side.

[0036] Advantageously, the fan arrangement of the dynamo-electric machine includes at least one radial fan or radial blower 202405671. Radial fans are capable of supplying the required pressure and air volume for cooling this machine. With the fan arrangement according to the invention, in particular the radial fan being located outside the frame, the outer diameter of the radial fan no longer needs to be limited in this way. Thus, the radial fan can be designed with a comparatively large diameter and / or a comparatively larger blade width without increasing the bearing spacing (DE to NDE bearings) or the frame length.

[0037] This allows for higher pressure and / or a comparatively larger volume of air to be provided for the primary circuit as well as the secondary circuit, in order to increase the cooling performance.

[0038] The fan, radial fan or axial fan, mounted outside the frame, is able to distribute the air of the primary circuit via appropriately arranged cover plates and / or guide elements at the frame openings and / or the top cooler openings to the DE and NDE sides, so that not only one-sided ventilation of the dynamo-electric machine, but also two-sided ventilation of the dynamo-electric machine is possible.

[0039] With two-sided ventilation of the dynamo-electric machine, the cross-section of the rotor inlet area can be increased and the cooling efficiency improved, since the air enters the rotor simultaneously from the DE and NDE sides.

[0040] By means of the appropriately arranged cover plates on the frame openings and / or the top cooler openings on the facing sides of the frame and top cooler, not only one-sided ventilation of the dynamo-electric machine but also two-sided ventilation of the dynamo-electric machine is possible.

[0041] Dynamoelectric machine according to one of the preceding claims, wherein secondary cooling system plate cooler or tube cooler 202405671

[0042] 7. The top-mounted cooler can be equipped with corresponding modules. The secondary circuit (i.e., the heat exchanger of the primary circuit), in particular the top-mounted cooler of the dynamo-electric rotary machine, is designed as a tube cooler or plate cooler, whose cooling medium is air or water. Such closed cooling circuits are best implemented with the following top-mounted coolers: (air-to-air cooling units via tube or plate coolers; or air-to-liquid cooling units via jacket or top-mounted coolers). Adjustable guide devices, such as nozzle elements or baffle elements, direct and / or branch the airflow from the primary circuit and / or secondary circuit.

[0043] The internal cooling circuit or primary circuit of the dynamo-electric rotary machine can be designed and adjusted as Z or X ventilation depending on the cooling requirements, which is easily possible through the cover plates on the frame openings and / or the top cooler openings on the facing sides of the frame and top cooler.

[0044] X- or Z-shaped ventilation systems for the dynamo-electric machines can now be configured via these adjustable top-mounted cooler openings and / or the corresponding adjustable frame openings. These openings can be sealed or opened using adapted cover elements. The respective openings thus correspond fluidically, allowing for the configuration of an X- or Z-shaped primary circuit.

[0045] Single-sided ventilation (Z-ventilation) of the internal cooling circuit refers to the ventilation of dynamoelectric machines in which an airflow (primary circuit) is fed into a winding head space of the frame on one side of the dynamoelectric machine and then passes through various parallel and / or series flow channels – winding head, back of the stator lamination stack, radial cooling channels, air gap, etc. – to the other winding head space. From there, the coolant passes through the 202405671

[0046] 8. Heated air from the primary circuit is drawn via one or more fans – either internal or external – through the corresponding openings in the top-mounted cooler for cooling in the secondary circuit.

[0047] The air from the primary circuit is thus guided through a winding head chamber into the housing / frame of the dynamo-electric machine and there, via the winding head and the lamination stacks and / or the air gap, into the other winding head chamber. From there, the now heated cooling airflow is cooled back down via the top-mounted cooler using the secondary circuit.

[0048] Two-sided ventilation (X-ventilation) of the internal cooling circuit refers to the ventilation of the dynamoelectric machine in which an airflow (primary circuit) is fed into the winding head space on both sides of the dynamoelectric machine and then passes through various parallel and / or series flow channels – including the winding head, the back of the stator lamination stack, axial and / or radial cooling channels, air gap, etc. – essentially through the center of the back of the stator lamination stack and into the top-mounted cooler via corresponding openings. The heated air from the primary circuit is conveyed into the top-mounted cooler for recooling by one or more fans – either integrated or external. Appropriate, particularly adjustable, baffle elements or guide elements improve the flow pattern of the primary circuit.

[0049] The fans of the fan arrangement, especially for the secondary and primary circuits of the dynamo-electric machine, are designed as self-driven fans and / or external fans in order to provide sufficient cooling even under extreme climatic conditions and / or at low speeds.

[0050] Due to the now possible larger diameter of the radial or axial fan, especially the radial fan designed as a self-contained fan, a correspondingly high air volume can also be achieved. 202405671

[0051] 9. This is guaranteed at low speeds of the dynamo-electric machine or with a comparatively high number of pole pairs (4p or 6p). Especially when at least one fan (for the primary or secondary circuit) is implemented as an external fan, sufficient cooling of the dynamo-electric machine is guaranteed even with higher pole pair numbers and correspondingly lower speeds.

[0052] In order to enable sufficient cooling of the dynamo-electric machine also on the DE side, at least one distribution channel to the DE side runs within the top-mounted cooler, which is designed in particular as a central channel and has openings opposite on the DE side, which open, among other things, into the winding head space on the DE side of the dynamo-electric machine.

[0053] X or Z ventilation of the primary circuit can be adjusted via cover plates and / or air guide elements, particularly at the top-mounted cooler openings and frame openings. This makes it possible to change the cooling principle of the dynamo-electric machine with a simple adjustment.

[0054] In order to increase the airflow, especially of the primary circuit - independent of X or Z ventilation - the radial extent of at least one radial fan, especially the radial intrinsic fan, is chosen to be larger than the radial extent of the frame of the dynamo-electric machine.

[0055] If such high airflow rates are not required for cooling, the diameter of the fan can also be made smaller to reduce the friction losses of the fan wheel, thereby increasing the efficiency of the dynamo-electric machine.

[0056] The fan assembly of the dynamo-electric machine is soundproofed. Because it is located outside the frame, noise reduction can be achieved relatively easily. The damping material is only present in the area of ​​202405671.

[0057] To provide for a fan arrangement. For fans located inside the housing of the dynamo-electric machine, this is difficult or even impossible.

[0058] The fan arrangement of the dynamoelectric rotary machine according to the invention can be implemented in both vertical and horizontal orientations. The dynamoelectric rotary machine can be configured as either a motor or a generator.

[0059] Because the fan arrangement on the NDE side is axially outside the NDE bearing, disassembly of the rotor from the stator is simplified, especially on-site at a plant.

[0060] The rotor is also cooled by the primary circuit, by being selectively cooled by radial and / or axial airflows directed at, around, or through it. Examples of this include the short-circuit rings of a rotor or the salient poles of a salient-pole rotor.

[0061] The invention is therefore possible for all types of protection of a dynamoelectric machine, regardless of whether it is an open, directly ventilated, completely closed machine or a pipe-ventilated machine and thus implicitly also a closed machine.

[0062] An open dynamoelectric machine is understood to be a machine into which ambient air is introduced, i.e., ambient air is in direct contact with the active parts (e.g., stator, winding system...) of the machine.

[0063] A directly ventilated dynamoelectric machine is understood to be a machine in which ambient air does not penetrate the machine. Cooling of the air circulated within the machine occurs via external coolers, e.g., tube or plate coolers, or simply through convection.

[0064] Furthermore, the invention is also suitable for the following cooling methods of dynamoelectric machines, including machines in 202405671.

[0065] 11 explosion-proof areas, such as mining. In these cases, all components of the dynamoelectric machine, such as housing, piping, etc., must be designed to prevent static charge buildup during operation.

[0066] The inventive design and construction or fan arrangement of the dynamoelectric machines is also suitable for the following cooling methods: These cooling methods are in detail:

[0067] The designs and construction or fan arrangement according to the invention are therefore also suitable as a supplement for dynamo-electric machines of the following types of ignition protection: 202405671

[0068] 12

[0069] The invention is therefore also suitable as a supplement for dynamoelectric machines, which are designed as so-called compact machines HVC with the following cooling methods and / or ignition protection methods:

[0070] This dynamo-electric rotary machine with such a cooling system and the associated advantages is mainly used in industrial applications and in mining for compressors, blowers, fans and pumps.

[0071] The invention and further advantageous embodiments of the invention are explained in more detail with reference to exemplary embodiments presented in principle, in which:

[0083] It should be noted that terms such as "axial", "radial", "tangential", etc., refer to the axis 10 used in the respective figure or example described. In other words, the directions axial, radial, and tangential always refer to an axis 10 of the rotor 11 and thus to the corresponding axis of symmetry of the stator 2. "Axial" describes a direction parallel to the axis 10, "radial" describes a direction orthogonal to the axis 10, either towards or away from it, and "tangential" is a direction that is circular around the axis 10 at a constant radial distance and with a constant axial position. The expression "circumferential" is synonymous with "tangential". 202405671

[0084] With regard to a surface, e.g. a cross-sectional area, the terms "axial", "radial", "tangential", etc. describe the orientation of the normal vector of the surface, i.e. the vector that is perpendicular to the surface in question.

[0085] The term "coaxial components," e.g., coaxial components such as rotor 11 and stator 2, refers here to components that have the same normal vectors, meaning that the planes defined by the coaxial components are parallel to each other. Furthermore, the term implies that the centers of coaxial components lie on the same axis of rotation or symmetry. However, these centers may be located at different axial positions on this axis, and the planes in question may therefore have a distance greater than zero from each other. The term does not necessarily require that coaxial components have the same radius.

[0086] The term "complementary," in the context of two components that are complementary to each other, means that their external forms are designed such that one component can preferably be completely enclosed within its complementary component, so that the inner surface of one component and the outer surface of the other ideally touch without gaps or across their entire surface. Consequently, in the case of two complementary objects, the external form of one object is determined by the external form of the other. The term "complementary" could be replaced by the term "inverse."

[0087] For the sake of clarity, in some cases where components are present multiple times, not all components shown in the figures are provided with reference symbols.

[0088] The described versions can be combined as desired. Likewise, individual features of the respective versions (202405671) can also be selected.

[0089] 15 can be combined from the general description section as well as the figure description without leaving the essence of the invention.

[0090] Figure 1 shows a partial longitudinal section of a dynamoelectric machine 1, which is arranged in a frame 26. The frame 26 has frame openings 27. The dynamoelectric machine 1 has a stator 2, which is constructed from axially stacked laminations, thus forming a stator core 3. A rotor 11 is arranged coaxially and radially further inward, separated from the stator 2 by an air gap 8. A winding system is arranged in substantially axially extending grooves of the stator 2, which point toward the air gap 8. This winding system forms winding heads 6 on the end faces of the stator core 3. Through electromagnetic interaction of the energized winding system with the rotor 11, the rotor 11, which is rotationally fixed to a shaft 9, is moved about an axis 10.Extending axially from the shaft 9, which carries the laminated core 12 of a rotor 11, at least one fan 19, preferably a radial fan, is located axially outside an NDE bearing 15, i.e., on the NDE side of the dynamo-electric machine 1. Because the fan 19 in this embodiment is now designed as an intrinsic radial fan located axially outside the bearing arrangement 15 of the dynamo-electric machine 1, operational vibrations of the shaft 9 are avoided.

[0091] The frame 26 with its closed frame openings 27 can also be considered as a housing 7 .

[0092] Figure 2 now shows the dynamo-electric machine 1 in perspective view with a top-mounted cooler 18, which, by means of corresponding frame openings 27 and top-mounted cooler openings 28, realizes a primary circuit 22 and a secondary circuit 23. For this to work, it is necessary that the frame openings 27 and the top-mounted cooler openings 28 correspond fluidically. As indicated by arrows, 202405671, the fan 19 generates the cooling airflow required for the primary circuit 22.

[0093] The primary circuit 22, starting from the fan 19, is designed as follows. The cooling airflow is supplied by the fan 19 via the top-mounted cooler 18 and, if necessary, a bypass device 21, depending on the cooling principle of Z- or X-ventilation of the primary circuit 22, via the respective open frame openings 27 of the dynamo-electric machine 1. In the case of Z-ventilation, cooling air is supplied to the machine on the NDE side and fed to the top-mounted cooler 18 via the DE side, where it is cooled and then supplied again to the fan 19.

[0094] In an X-ventilation configuration, the cooling airflow generated by the fan 19 is introduced into the machine 1 on both the DE and NDE sides and guided, via the space provided by the winding head 6, through axial and / or radial cooling channels 5 into the laminated cores 3, 12 of the stator 2 and rotor 11. The heated air exits centrally, as shown in Figure 2, and is then cooled again by the secondary circuit 23 and supplied to the fan 19 once more. The primary circuit 22 is thus a closed loop.

[0095] Such a closed primary circuit 22 is particularly advantageous for closed dynamoelectric machines 1 in mining, since certain explosion protection requirements apply there depending on the place of use.

[0096] FIG. 3 illustrates the principle of X-ventilation in a partial longitudinal section. It is particularly evident that the axial distance 30 between the DE bearing and the NDE bearing can be reduced without any loss of cooling. A water cooler 31 is provided there as a secondary cooler.

[0097] FIG 4 shows a dynamoelectric machine 1 with a top-mounted cooler 18, in which an X-ventilation is implemented, with a further fan 24 being provided between the bearing 15 of the NDE side and the fan 19, which also forms part of the secondary circuit 23. The secondary circuit 23 can be described as a tube cooler 202405671

[0098] The secondary circuit 23 may be configured as a secondary circuit 17 and / or plate cooler within the top-mounted cooler 18. It is also possible for the secondary circuit 23 to be configured as a water cooler. If air is used as the cooling medium for the secondary circuit 23, it is operated as an open circuit, i.e., ambient air is drawn in by the fan 24 and discharged via the tube bundle or plate arrangement of the top-mounted cooler 18, preferably on the DE side and / or the sides.

[0099] FIG. 5 shows a partial perspective view of the DE side of the dynamoelectric machine 1, which has a shaft flange 16 in the shaft area and in which the top-mounted cooler 18 with a bypass device 21 transports the cooling air of the cooling medium conveyed by the fan 19 on the NDE side to the DE side of the dynamoelectric machine 1. On the DE side of the dynamoelectric machine 1, cooling air is led through DE-side openings 35 of this bypass device 21 into the space of the winding head 6 of the DE side of the dynamoelectric machine 1.

[0100] FIG 6 again shows a dynamo-electric machine 1 with a top-mounted cooler 18, but now the basic airflow of the secondary circuit 23 is shown. Ambient air is drawn from the area between the dynamo-electric machine 1 and the fan assembly via the fan 24 and directed into a tube or plate cooling system of the top-mounted cooler 18, thereby cooling the primary circuit 22. The heated air of the secondary circuit 23 is discharged to the outside.

[0101] FIG. 7 shows a partial longitudinal section of the winding head 6 on the NDE side of the dynamo-electric machine 1, as well as part of the rotor 11, which in this case is designed as a squirrel-cage rotor and has a short-circuit ring 17 on each of its end faces. Preferably, the space in which the fan 19 or fans 19, 24 are now designed as an intrinsic or external fan can be relatively easily insulated by the material. 202405671

[0102] 18

[0103] FIG 8 shows in further detail the front face of the stator 2 and the rotor 11, with some additional lines being routed on the winding head 6, which may also be cooled by the primary circuit 22.

[0104] FIG. 9 shows a further illustration of the stator 2 and the rotor 11, wherein the airflow of the primary circuit 22 – generated by the fan 19 – cools the winding head 6 and opens into substantially axial and radial cooling channels 5 of the rotor lamination stack 12 and / or the stator lamination stack 3. These axially extending cooling channels open into radially extending cooling channels 5, so that the heated air exiting radially from the stator 2 is guided upwards through corresponding frame openings 27 and top-mounted cooler openings 28 into the top-mounted cooler 18. There, the heated air of the primary circuit 22 is cooled by the secondary circuit 23. The secondary circuit 23 can be designed as an air-to-air heat exchanger or – as in this case – as an air-to-water heat exchanger 31.

[0105] FIGS. 10 and 11 each show partial longitudinal sections of dynamoelectric machines 1 with a fan and top-mounted cooler 18 with at least one water cooler 31 designed as a secondary circuit 23. The fan 19 is in each case designed as a self-supporting fan, that is, it is rotationally fixed to the shaft 9.

[0106] FIG 12 shows a top view of a top-mounted cooler 18 with an exemplary air distribution of an open primary circuit 22, which conveys the outside air into the machine 1 via the fan 19 and discharges the heated air to the side - essentially perpendicular to the axis 10 - to the environment via a blow-off device 32.

[0107] FIGS. 13 and 14 show a partial longitudinal section of a dynamo-electric machine 1 with fan 19 and top-mounted cooler 18 with exhaust device 32. The ambient air is drawn in by a fan 19, which is designed as a self-contained fan, as shown in FIG. 13. 202405671

[0108] 19

[0109] According to FIG 14, the fan 19 is designed as an external fan, that is, it can deliver a predetermined amount of air into the machine 1 independently of the speed of the dynamo-electric machine 1, i.e., independently of the speed of the shaft 9.

[0110] Regardless of the design of the drive of the fan 19, there is an open primary circuit 22 which conveys the outside air into the machine 1 via the fan 19 and discharges the heated air to the side - essentially perpendicular to the axis 10 - to the environment via a blow-out device 32.
