Generator Stator Cooling System

The generator stator uses a closed-circuit cooling system with demineralized water to dissipate heat from the stator winding, brushes, and phase connectors. The cooling water is pumped continuously through the hollow stator conductors by two redundant pumps. If the water pressure drops, the standby pump will automatically start and an alarm will signal to trip the machine if pressure is still insufficient. The cooling system typically includes a water pump, thermostat, radiator, piping and hoses, and oil cooler to circulate the cooling water.

Electrical EngineeringElectrical Machines


The losses occuring in the generator stator winding components viz
stator winding, main brushes & phase connetors are dissipated
directly through water.
The cooling water being in direct contact with voltage winding, must
have an electrical conductivity of order of 0.5 to 1 µΩ .

The stator winding is cooled by closed circuit circulation of low


conductivity water ( Demineralised water) through the hollow
rectangular conductors which from the cooling system for higher rating
(200 MW & above) Generator.

The cooling water from the expansion tank is circulated by two 100 %
duty AC motor driven , centrifugal pumps , one working and the other
standby.

The pump are electrically interlocked between each other in such a


manner that the standby pump automatically starts up in case of water
drops in the circuit. In case of the pressure is still less, an alarm signal
appears and machine should be tripped.

a. The genset with medium and high standard configuration adopts


closed circulation liquid cooling mode with its own fan. The cooling
system circulation loop basically consists of the following parts: water
pump; waterway between the engine cylinder block and the cylinder
head; thermostat; bypass pipe between the thermostat body and the
water pump; water tank radiator; pipeline and hose; lubricating oil
cooler.
b. Medium and high non-standard configuration genset, such as split
water tank type unit, water tank radiator should be replaced by heat
exchanger, while there are expansion tank and remote tank, such as
the remote tank installation position is relatively high, the transition tank
should be added, to prevent the heat exchanger from being damaged
due to excessive internal pressure.

c. In addition, all medium and high generator set can be separately


equipped with coolant filtration device upon user’s request. The device
has two functions: A, block all impurities in the coolant and prevent
scale formation in the cooling system; B, improve the corrosion
protection performance of the coolant.

d. All kinds of dirt on the radiator chip can greatly reduce the cooling
performance of the radiator. Therefore, in a dusty environment, it is
necessary to clean the radiator frequently.
