  • Method for testing a water-cooled stator of a generator for leaks, and test skid for use in the method
    Patent number: 6367311
    Abstract: A test skid includes equipment for drying water channels in the stator of a water-cooled generator prior to testing the stator for water leaks. The equipment includes a pressure section for supplying compressed air to the stator and a vacuum section for applying vacuum to the stator. The pressure section includes an air receiver and a heater to heat compressed air as it flows from the air receiver to the stator. The hot air warms the stator and facilitates removal of water from the water channels by thermal evaporation. After the stator is thoroughly dry, the equipment on the test skid is used for pressure decay and vacuum decay testing of the stator.
