Abstract
The leading operation of large generators is an effective method to adjust the electric reactive power surplus, and the leading-power factor was restricted by the temperature rise of the end parts. In this paper, a three-dimensional (3-D) electromagnetic field of a 330-MW water-hydrogen-hydrogen-cooled turbogenerator in the end region was investigated, and the effect of end leakage magnetic flux on stator step packets was considered in the calculation process. The magnetic flux density distribution was analyzed, and the eddy current losses of metal parts in the end region and core losses of stator step packets were calculated under lagging and leading operations. The influences of the leading-power factor on the losses of end components were analyzed, which could provide a theoretical basis for the safety of the leading operation.
