Abstract

AbstractIt is very important to consider the eddy current reaction of the metal structure in large electric machines, which has a direct impact on the calculation results of induced current and loss. In order to solve the problem that the complex end leakage magnetic field is difficult to calculate directly, a new semi‐analytical method (NSM) considering the eddy current reaction is proposed. Firstly, the corresponding relationship between the external magnetic field and the global magnetic field of the clamping ring in two simple calculation models is obtained by the 3‐D finite element method. Then, the external magnetic field of the clamping ring in a 300MVA synchronous condenser under rated operating conditions is calculated, and the global magnetic field of the clamping ring is determined based on the obtained corresponding relationship. The eddy current density and eddy current loss of the clamping ring are calculated using the external magnetic field and the global magnetic field respectively. Finally, the calculation results were compared with the 3‐D finite element results, which verified the importance of the global magnetic field and the accuracy of the NSM.
