Mock-up Study of the Effect of Wall distance on the Thermal Rating of Power Cables in Ventilated Tunnels

Power transmission through power cables installed in ventilated tunnels is increasingly used worldwide and offers a complex thermal environment. Established correlations currently in use have been deduced from a non-fully developed turbulent flow and …

Taylor-Couette-Poiseuille flow and heat transfer in an annular channel with a slotted rotor

This paper investigates a Taylor-Couette-Poiseuille flow in an annular channel of a slotted rotating inner cylinder, corresponding to a salient pole hydrogenerator. The purpose of this study is to improve the understanding of flow and thermal …

Heat transfer coefficient distribution on the pole face of a hydrogenerator scale model

This paper focuses on the effect of rotation on heat transfer mechanisms in rotating machines with the purpose to improve the understanding of thermal phenomena and cooling of hydrogenerators. Using a simplified scale model equipped with a heated …
