Динаміка і міцність корпусів та опорних елементів конструкції гідрогенераторів

Abstract

The basic designs of Hydrogenerators are considered in the presented scientific work. It is shown that one of the most loaded units of Hydrogenerator is the thrust bearing. The analysis of the causes of emergencies in the thrust bearing unit of the high power Hydrogenerator is performed based on the experience of operation. Cause-and-effect relations of origin and development of defects are determined. Existing methods of calculation of the stressed state of the chambers of the thrust bearing unit in the classical formulation for the stationary mode of operation are considered. The main features of the thrust bearing unit operation with respect to the features of the sliding supports were studied. An updated Diagram of the sliding supports loading is presented. For the first time, the calculation of the elastic chambers of the thrust bearing was performed in three-dimensional formulation taking into account the physical properties of the oil, the material of the chambers and the unevenness of the existing loads. It is shown that the applied designs of SE “Рlant “Electrotyazhmash” can be used in high power Hydrogenerators in the entire range of operational loads without restrictions.
