Improved designs of disk induction motors of block-module type for extreme environments

Resumo

The construction of new disk induction motors of block-module type, which are a part of motor-transformer units (MTUs), are considered. The induction motors are intended for operation in hermetic objects under extreme conditions: a gas, steam-to-gas, and liquid environment at high pressures (up to 150MPa) and temperature (up to +600°C). The primary winding of the transformer part of the unit is connected to a three-phase network, and the secondary z-phase bar winding is located in Z grooves of the magnetic conductor of a transformer closed on one side by a short-circuited ring. The motor part of the unit contains an induction motor with a short-circuited rotor and stator with bar uninsulated winding connected to the transformer secondary winding; on the opposite side, it is closed by a short-circuited ring. The induction motor can be implemented with a disk short-circuited rotor located between two disk stators with bar windings. The bars of the transformer secondary winding are connected with Z bar-shaped hermetic lead-ins installed in a hermetic partition. Each bar-shaped hermetic lead-in is connected at the other end with n bars of the stator winding through intermediate conductive arc-shaped segments adjoining the stator. The operating principle and operation features of new disk induction motors of block-module type are considered.
