  • Patent number: 10688496
    Abstract: The invention is a simulation cabinet with two side walls, a bottom wall, a top wall, an exterior wall, and an interior chamber, with a rear wall being arranged in the interior chamber at a distance from the exterior wall, and at least one ventilator arranged between the rear wall and the exterior wall, with the rear wall showing air openings for suctioning air from the interior chamber via the ventilator, with the rear wall showing at least one opening and at least a first flow restrictor each being arranged between the rear wall and the exterior wall such that the air suctioned by the ventilator through the air openings of the rear wall, after flowing through the flow restrictor, can be guided through the opening into the interior.

  • Publication number: 20040056542
    Abstract: The invention relates to a rotor for an electrical rotating machine, e.g., a turbo generator. The rotor has a rotor winding that is provided with several sectors positioned next to each other in circumferential direction. In each sector, several conductor bars are stacked on top of each other in radial direction. The conductor bars extend parallel to the longitudinal rotor axis. Each of the sectors has an axial ventilation channel and several radial ventilation openings communicating with said ventilation channel. In relation to the conductor bars, the ventilation channel is positioned radially inside and extends parallel to the longitudinal rotor axis. The ventilation openings are spaced apart from each other in axial direction and extend radially through the conductor bars.

  • Patent number: 6416281
    Abstract: A method for cooling the flow in radial gaps formed between rotors and stators of turbomachines, which method is improved with regard to its cooling effect. In addition, a simple, cost-effective and robust arrangement for realizing the method is to be specified. According to the invention, this is achieved in that a first cooling fluid is admitted to a stator part adjacent to the radial gap and a second, gaseous cooling fluid is introduced into the radial gap. To this end, either at least one recess is formed in the interior of the stator part adjacent to the radial gap or at least one cavity is arranged at the stator part. The recess or the cavity is connected to both a feed line and a discharge line for the first cooling fluid. In addition, at least one feed passage as well as a discharge device for the second cooling fluid are arranged at the radial gap.

  • Patent number: 6257834
    Abstract: A method of cooling the flow in radial gaps formed between rotors and stators turbo machines is provided. The method includes the step of using water as a cooling fluid for the stator part adjacent to the radial gap. To this end, either at least one recess is formed in the interior of the stator part adjacent to the radial gap or at least one cavity is arranged at the stator part. The recess or the cavity is connected to both a feed line and a discharge line for the cooling fluid.

  • Patent number: 6238179
    Abstract: The object of the invention is to create a centrifugal compressor with a cooling appliance which is simpler but more effective. This is achieved by the feed device (27) for the gaseous cooling medium (31) opening into the separating gap upstream of the mainly radially extending gap region (20) of the separating gap (18).

  • Patent number: 6209327
    Abstract: A burner arrangement (20) for a gas turbine comprises an interior space (22) enclosed by a casing (23), in which interior space (22) at least one burner (21) is arranged, and into which interior space (22) in each case a jet (26, 27) of a gaseous medium, in particular air, is sprayed through at least two nozzle openings (24, 25) against the direction of flow of the burner (21) and along the inner wall (23a) of the casing (23) which jets (26, 27), guided by the inner wall (23a), meet one another from opposite directions and combine to form a secondary flow (28) flowing off perpendicularly from the inner wall (23a). In such a burner arrangement, the flow is stabilized and evened out by virtue of the fact that, to establish the impingement point of the jets (26, 27), a dividing plate (29) arranged in the flow path of the jets (26, 27) and disposed essentially perpendicularly to the inner wall (23a) is provided.
