© 2018 IEEE. A combined electromagnetic and thermal modelling approach has been developed to optimise the design of multiple radial stator vents in an air-cooled, synchronous generator with a power rating of several hundred kVA. An experimentally val... Read More about Combined Thermofluid and Electromagnetic Optimisation of Stator Vent Cooling.

A CFD and experimental investigation into a non-intrusive method for measuring cooling air mass flow rate through a synchronous generator (2018)
Conference Proceeding
Bersch, K., Connor, P. H., Eastwick, C. N., & Galea, M. (2018). A CFD and experimental investigation into a non-intrusive method for measuring cooling air mass flow rate through a synchronous generator.

This paper presents a detailed methodology for a non-intrusive measurement of cooling air mass flow rate that enables an overall machine evaluation. This approach enables the simultaneous measurement of air mass flow with shaft torque at differing op...
