Overview of BHEL
BHEL was established in the year 1964 and from the year 1974 it started
earning profits. It has 15 manufacturing divisions,8 service center's across
India.
BHEL Hyderabad manufactures turbo generators of 1.5MW to 120MW
capacities.
BHEL has borrowed technology for manufacturing generators from SKODA
Exports Czechoslovakia in1960’s they borrowed from M/s. Siemens,
Germany and it’s sister company KWU(KraftWerk Union) in Germany.
The Domestic customers of the BHEL in the market are NTPC, ONGC, BPCL,
NFC, Nuclear power corporation, Reliance, Hindustan Oils, oil India, state
electric boards, refineries and cement plants.
Whenever there is a relative motion between a
conductor and magnet, then an EMF is
induced in the conductor. The induced EMF is
directly proportionally to the rate of change of
flux and the no. of turns.
Definition: A turbo generator is a turbine directly connected to an Electric
generator for the generation of electric power. Large steam powered
turbo generators provide majority of world’s electricity.
Major components of turbo-generators are the Active Parts and the
support parts. Stator winding, Rotor winding, Stator core comes under the
active parts and stator frame, rotor shaft, rotor retaining rings, Cooling
and excitation systems come under the support parts.
Active parts: Support parts:
Stator core. Stator frame.
Stator winding. Rotor shaft.
Stator end cover. Rotor retaining rings.
RTD’S. Bearings.
Rotor winding. Cooling system.
Excitation system.
Steps in designing process of a turbo
generator
Reception of rotor
Laying of coils
Centring of coils with respect to rotor
Assembly of retaining rings
Balancing
As turbo generators are high voltage machines which are ranging from
less than 1500 volts, hence the machine efficiency is accurate.
Turbo generators are more reliable in nature. As the production of sources
are taken from the non renewable energy sources the cost is economic.
The scientists are investigating and testing on different insulation
techniques besides VPI technique of turbo generators.
