Abstract

Unlike other polluted energies, the nuclear power is a novel energy which has the characteristics of clean, green and saving material. Due to the unbalanced power flow in the power system or on the load, the winding force appears large amount of harmonics and they are linked to the sound operation of the nuclear plant. In this paper, firstly the technology related nuclear power is discussed and the present central technology is reported. Then based on the experimental data, the finite element model of a third generation huge nuclear power turbo-generator is established. The arrangement of the field winding is given and the law of the field winding force distribution is discussed. And under unbalanced load, the constant forces of each field winding are found. This could bring new technology for the nuclear power turbo-generators safe running and fault diagnosis. The easiest damage part in field winding is shown and the conclusions in this paper give very useful information for future design of nuclear power turbo-generators.
