Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve cooling performance, by providing a hollow portion having a plurality of irregular portions on the surface of the thrust collar of a thrust bearing and causing the hollow portion to communicate with the steam space of the heat generating portion of the heat pipe of a rotational shaft. CONSTITUTION:Heat generated by a frictional resistance caused when a thrust bearing 3 and a thrust collar 22 are subjected to thrust force is transferred to the irregular portion 21 of the surface of a hollow portion 9 through the interior of the thrust collar 22 by heat transfer. When hydraulic fluid is heated and evaporated at the irregular portion 21, the steam of it flows to the low pressure steam space 8 of a heat generating portion from a hollow portion 9 through a hydraulic fluid passage 19 and further it moves to the low pressure side of a runner 6. The steam moved to the side of the runner 6 makes contact with the wall surface of a cooling unit and is condensed to thrust collar 22 by centrifugal force. Since the heat transfer area of the thrust bearing 3 is increased as mentioned above, heat resistance at the condensation portion of the heat pipe 7 of a rotational shaft is reduced.

In the conventional bearing cooling device, most of the heat generated in the thrust collar n flows into the rotating shaft heat pipe 7, but in this case, the heat from the heat generating part of the thrust collar to the rotating shaft heat vibrator Conduction distance is long.

■Since the thickness of the thrust collar 4 is usually uniform, the heat conduction area decreases from the surface of the thrust collar that generates heat due to friction toward the center of rotation, and the area of the evaporation surface also decreases.

For the above reasons, the temperature difference increases due to the increase in thermal resistance from the heat generating part to the heat pipe and the increase in thermal resistance due to the increase in heat flux at the heat pipe evaporation surface, so the temperature of the bearing part becomes higher than the allowable value. Therefore, the output is about 500k
It has been difficult to apply this method to bearing cooling systems powered by horizontal shaft water turbines of W or larger.

The method of keeping the temperature of the bearing part below the allowable value is to reduce the temperature difference from the heat generating part to the heat pipe condensing part, and to increase the heat transfer coefficient by increasing the heat transfer area in the cooling part and making the liquid film thinner. There are ways to reduce the temperature difference.

The heat generated by frictional resistance when the thrust bearing 3 and the thrust collar n configured in this manner receive a thrust force is transmitted to the uneven portion 2 on the surface of the hollow portion B by thermal conduction inside the thrust collar n. When the working fluid is heated and evaporated in the uneven portion, the vapor flows from the hollow portion 9 through the working fluid passage 19 to the vapor space 8 of the heat generating portion where the pressure is low, and further moves to the runner side where the pressure is low. The steam that has moved to the runner side comes into contact with the wall surface (liquid film) of the cooling section and condenses to become liquid.

According to this invention, the heat generated in the thrust collar ρ of the horizontal axis rotating electric machine is conducted through the thickness of the thrust collar, and further through the hollow part where the heat transfer area is large, and the heat is conducted through the uneven part on the surface of the hollow part. Since the heat transfer area can be increased to 2 to 4 times that of a flat surface, the heat flux can be reduced and the thermal resistance of the evaporation section can be significantly reduced. This makes it possible to reduce the temperature difference in a part of the thrust collar, making it possible to cool the thrust bearings of horizontal shaft water turbine generators or horizontal shaft pumps with an output of 500 kW or more, and improve cooling performance.
