Measured and simulated distributions of voltage and temperature along stator coils of synchronous generator

Abstract

The ECP (end winding corona protection) of the armature coils of a synchronous generator is designed and modeled. The paper focuses on the distribution of voltage and temperature along this protection that is both measured and simulated. The results are compared. The aim of the work is to verify the suggested mathematical model which would help to save time and costs connected with the ECP design.
