Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device for securing an electrical winding of flexible cable in a slot in a core of an electrical machine and to an electrical machine having such a winding,
- the cable thus comprises substantially only the electrical conductor and at least one semiconducting layer on each side of the insulating layer.
- the stator When manufacturing the winding for such a stator, the stator is usually provided with mainly closed slots, the cable being drawn through the slots.
- the slots for the stator winding in the stator core must also be made very deep to ensure sufficient space for the required number of winding turns in the slot, and this in turn leads to the teeth that separate the slots becoming very long.
- the stator winding is composed of a cable with considerably smaller diameter than the winding in a machine for high voltage and high power.
- a generator for wind power plants of the type described for instance, in international patent applications SE99/00943 and SE99/00944 and in published international application WO99/28919, the generator is driven directly and operates at very low speed, 10-25 rpm, which in turn means that it must be designed with a large number of poles. Many poles result in large diameter and thus high weight.
- the Swedish patent application No. 0000695-7 filed simultaneously with the present application describes an arrangement in which the stator slots are formed as open double slots into which the cable winding is inserted. However, in such winding slots the finished winding must be secured in the slots.
- GB 1 135 242 describes an arrangement for securing wind- ings in stator slots of electrical machines. Constructions are shown with inflatable hoses or homogenous packing elements arranged between the winding stack and a locking wedge that engages the wall of the stator slot. Such inflatable hoses or packing elements are also shown arranged between winding stacks and one slot wall.
- the stator windings in conventional machines are dimensioned for high current and low voltage. Since the force that occurs between two electrical conductors is proportional to the current squared it will be understood that the large currents in conventional windings also give rise to extremely large mechanical forces.
- the above-mentioned British patent specification describes measures for coming to grips with the large radial forces produced by the stator currents on the windings in the stator slots, and means for securing them.
- the current in the winding is extremely low in comparison with conventional machines, and the mechanical current forces exerted on the windings in the slots are thus also extremely low.
- the winding is much more sensitive to outer mechanical damage which can result in electrical flashover, than windings of conventional type.
- electrical machines having such windings of cable with semiconducting layers to enclose the electrical field inserted in slots in the machine core it is therefore extremely important that the device for securing the winding in the slot in no way damages or deforms the cable so that injurious field concentrations can occur.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a simple device for secur- ing windings in open slots whereby the problem discussed above is eliminated, and which device is consequently suitable for securing a cable winding in an open slot in the machine core.
- the object of the invention is also to provide an electrical machine of the type in question with such a securing device. This object is achieved with a device and an electric machine of the type described in the introduction, with the characterising features defined in claim 1 and claim 7, respectively.
- a securing device at the slot opening in accordance with the present invention also prevents the occurrence of vibrations in the teeth separating the slots in a stator.
- the cable comprises an insulation system surrounding the conducting core, with two semiconducting layers applied one on each side of a solid layer of insulation, which semiconducting layers constitute substantially equi- potential surfaces.
- the electrical field is thus confined and the outer surface of the cable can be kept at substantially earth potential.
- Figure 1 shows a cross-sectional view of a cable suitable for use in the cable-wound machine in question
- Figs. 2 and 3 show embodiments of the device in accordance with the invention.
- the invention relates to cable-wound rotating electrical machines.
- the cable 1 forming the windings of the machine is shown in cross section in Figure 1 and constitutes a high-voltage cable of substantially the same type as those used for power distribution, i.e. PEX cables.
- the high-voltage cable 1 comprises a conducting core with a plurality of strands 2.
- the conductor is surrounded by an insulation system having two semiconducting layers 3, 5 applied one of each side of a solid layer of insulation 4.
- the cable is flexible and the semiconducting layers 3, 5 comprise substantially equipotential surfaces. This enables the electrical field to be confined so that the outer surface of the cable can be kept at substantially earth potential - an extremely important feature when using cable as windings in the iron core of an electrical machine.
- the solid insulation 4 and the semiconducting layers 3, 5 enclosing it have an electrical insulating strength exceeding 3 kV/mm, preferably exceeding 5 kV/mm.
- the cable is thus eminently suitable for use as winding in a stator core for high voltages, while still maintaining control of the electrical field and without risk of destructive electrical partial discharges, PD, occurring.
- Figure 2 shows a cable winding in a double slot in the stator core of an electrical machine.
- the winding is formed by a number of cables 20, 22, 26, ...34, inserted through the opening of a slot of special design to retain cables inserted one after the other during the winding process, by means of self-locking.
- This type of winding is described more fully in the above-mentioned Swedish patent application No. 0000695-7 filed simultaneously with the present application.
- FIG. 2 shows one embodiment of a securing device in the form of a spring member 36 which is in contact with the last-inserted cable 34 and is secured by means of a locking wedge 38 arranged in the slot opening and engaging the slot wall.
- the spring member comprises a sandwich construction of a wave-formed spring element 40, compressed by two opposing wedges 42.
- the wave-formed spring element of the spring member 36 is shaped with its wave form running transversely across the slot. When it is compressed upon driving in the opposing wedges, therefore, it will expand substantially in the direction of the wave form.
- FIG 3 shows an alternative embodiment with a spring member 36 in the form of a cellular plastic plate 44 arranged in contact with the last-inserted cable 34.
- this cellular plastic plate 44 is secured with a locking wedge 38 in engagement with the slot walls at the opening of the slot. The winding will thus be firmly clamped in the slot by the cellular plastic plate 44, the latter normally being compressed somewhat upon driving in the wedge 38.
- the cable described may have a diameter of between 16 and 25 mm and preferably be dimensioned for a voltage level of between 10 and 50 kV.
- the securing device in accordance with the invention is suitable for use in a directly driven generator in a wind power plant, with a power exceeding 1 MW, preferably exceeding 1.5 MW, and most preferably between 3 and 6 MW, but is not limited thereto. It can also be used in motors driven with considerably higher power, within the scope of the invention.
