Summary
Numerical methods of ventilation design of hydro generators are continuously improved. The present paper shows a qualitative snap-shot of the state of development and a preview of enhancements in Andritz Hydro by a concise presentation of pertinent (regarding application) and critical characteristics of the methods. Pumped storage generators (mostly maximum-capacity generators) are employed as examples. For a better illustration ventilation-schemes and the design-process are presented briefly.
Zusammenfassung
Numerische Methoden der Ventilationsauslegung von Hydrogeneratoren werden kontinuierlich verbessert. Die vorliegende Arbeit zeigt eine qualitative Momentaufnahme des Entwicklungsstatus und einen Ausblick der Weiterentwicklung in Andritz Hydro durch eine komprimierte Darstellung Anwender-relevanter und kritischer Eigenschaften der Methoden. Pumpspeichergeneratoren (meist Grenzleistungs-Hydrogeneratoren) werden als Beispiele verwendet. Zur besseren Illustration werden einige Ventilationssysteme und der Auslegungsprozess knapp vorgestellt.
