Dual stator-winding induction generators represent a significant evolution in generator design, incorporating two independent stator windings to enhance operational flexibility and performance. By ...
Over the past decade, since industry deregulation, the typical utility power plant has lengthened the maintenance intervals of its major systems to minimize downtime and costs. Many plants schedule ...
A crucial factor to consider when planning maintenance of high-voltage (HV) motors and generators, especially those in critical industrial applications, is the life expectancy of the stator windings.
Historically, generator inspections require rotor removal (Figure 1). There’s a significant level of risk during this process due to possible generator damage during the disassembly, and it also ...
To meet the demand for drive motors / generators needed for hybrid vehicles, engineers at Remy International Inc. designed a line of off-the-shelf devices that are said to have the highest ...
Large electrical generator stators are normally cooled by water. Unfortunately, generator availability is reduced when copper corrosion products plug the hollow strands of the stator-winding coil.
Global demand for electricity supply continues to grow. Power generation providers constantly evaluate capacity additions and the tradeoffs between alternatives. Since American utilities are building ...
