TURBO-GENERATOR
• Turbo generator operates on the fundamental principles
of ELECTROMAGNETIC INDUCTION.
• It converts mechanical energy into electrical energy.
• It is a turbine directly connected to electric generator for
the generation of electricity.
• Mechanical motion is generated in turbine by using
heat.
• Turbo generator rotor is filled with hydrogen gas which
is used to prevent the coil from decaying.
NOMENCLATURE OF TURBO-GENERATOR
TARI 108/46
THRI 108/44
THDF 115/59
TYPES OF GENERATOR
TARI – Air Cooled Turbo Generator
 Stator Winding – Indirectly Air Cooled
 Rotor Winding/Stator Core – Directly Air Cooled

THRI – Hydrogen Cooled Turbo Generator

 Stator Winding – Indirectly Air Cooled
 Rotor Winding/Stator Core – Directly Hydrogen Cooled

THDF – Hydrogen/ Water Cooled Turbo Generator

 Stator Winding – Directly Water Cooled
 Rotor Winding/Stator Core - Directly Hydrogen Cooled
MAIN PARTS OF TURBO GENERATOR
 Stator - Stator Frame (Fabrication & Machining)
 Core Assembly - Stator Core, Core Suspension Arrangement
 End Shields
 Stator Winding Assembly - Stator Winding, Winding
Assembly, Connecting Bus bar
 Rotor - Rotor Shaft, Rotor Wedges, Rotor Coils, Wound
Rotor, Rotor Assembly
 Completing Assembly - Bearing Assembly, Shaft Seal
Assembly, Oil Catchers, Insert Cover etc
 Exciter
 Auxiliary System
 Stator winding
Stator Frame
EXCITATION SYSTEM
• The process of generating a magnetic field by
means of an electric current is called excitation.
• It provides power to the field windings thus produce
field for rotor.

Types of exciter:
 Brush type exciter / Static excitation

 Brush less exciter

BRUSH TYPE/STATIC EXCITATION
 Rotor Field Winding is connected to Slip ring
mounted on Rotor.
 Excitation is provided by current transfer by contact
through Carbon Brushes, Slip ring and field lead.
BRUSH LESS EXCITATION
SYSTEM
 PERMANENT MAGNETIC PILOT EXCITER
 THREE PHASE MAIN EXCITER
 ADVANTAGE OF BRUSH LESS EXCITER
OVER BRUSH TYPE EXCITER
 Eliminates Slip Rings, Brush gear and Field Breaker
 Eliminates all problems associated with transfer of
current via sliding contacts
 Eliminates the Hazard of changing Brushes on Load

 Brush Losses are eliminated
