Abstract
Due to the complexity of the structures and magnetic field distribution in the end region of large turbogenerators, using a 330-MW water-hydrogen-hydrogen cooled turbogenerator as an example, the 3-D mathematical and geometry models of the nonlinear transient eddy current field were given. Taking the nonlinearity of the core material and the influences of noncontact between the copper screen and the clamping plate, as well as the shape of stator end windings into consideration, the 3-D transient electromagnetic field was calculated, and the losses of different metal parts were obtained by the finite-element method. The calculated power losses were applied to the thermal field as heat sources. Temperatures of the copper screen were gained. The calculated results of copper screen were well coincident with the test data. Hence, the calculated results are accurate, and the method of calculation is effective.
