    The document discusses several topics related to electric machines: 1. Tan delta and polarization index tests are used to measure insulation quality and bar cleanliness/moisture in electric machines. 2. Operating voltages for ageing AC and DC machines are given as ratios of the rated voltage. 3. The magnetic center effect causes the rotor to align itself under magnetic forces between the rotor and stator.

    TAN DELTA TEST = Bar Insulation quality (Percentage in lesser eg 4 %)

    POLARISATION INDEX = Bar cleanliness and presence of moisture ( Ratio in more than 2 )

    HV test

    AC for ageing machine is 1.2 Times of Rated Voltage

    DC for ageing machine is 1.2 x 1.7 times x Rated Voltage

    New Machine AC is 2E(Rated Voltage) + 1

    MAGNETIC CENTRE

    In Electric Machines such as Motors and Generators, the shaft tends to maintain a distinct
    axial position when running. ... TheMagnetic center is caused due to the magnetic forces
    between the rotor and stator attract each other

    If there is a mis match in the magnetic centres, the rotor always tries to align itself whileit
    rotates under the influence of magnetic forces which would constantly produce axialthrust on
    the bearings..... Larger the offset, more will be the pull and more will be thethrust...

    SYNCHRONIZATION

    synchronization is the process of matching the speed and frequency of a generator or


    other source to a running network. An AC generator cannot deliver power to an
    electrical grid unless it is running at the same frequency as the network

    ELLIPTICAL BEARING

    it means that the use of elliptical bearings permits a rotating machine to operate with higher
    speeds, larger clearances, lighter loads, larger diameter shafts, longer bearings, and lubricants
    with higher viscosities. All of these trends make it much easier to design machinery with
    increased power densities.

    For a circular bore bearing which has only a single film on the bottom, there is no offsetting
    downward force from the top half, and therefore, increasing the lube oil supply temperature
    reduces the viscosity of the film in the bottom half and this almost always tends to stabilize the
    rotor-bearing system, whereas, for an elliptical bore bearing with bottom and top films, increasing
    the lube oil temperature reduces the film viscosity in both bottom and top wedge films and this
    does not always assure improved rotor stability: The offsetting effects are not always fully
    predictable. Nevertheless, on balance, elliptical bore bearings are a great improvement over both
    circular bore bearings and pressure-dam bearings.

    SELF ALIGN SPHERICAL BEARING

    tilting-pad bearing with spherical pad mounting has the great advantage to self-adjust when angular
    mis-alignment between rotor and bearing bore is taking place, but they still miss the ability to
    compensate for the lateral misalignment.

    TILTING PAD JOURNAL BEARING

    Another important advantage of the tilting-pad journal bearing is its


    ability to accommodate shaft misalignment. Because of its relatively
    short length-to-diameter ratio, it can accommodate minor
    misalignment quite easily.

    FLEXIBLE & RIGID COUPLING

    In Industrial Steam turbines(Extraction and Back pressure) and Lower Capacity


    Turbines

    Turbine to Gear box : Most of the manufacturers are using flexible coupling , the
    reason might be offset alignment, High speed (5000–10000rpm) and the flexible
    couplings with the distance piece can bare up to 2–3 mm Missalignment.

    Gear Box to Generator : Rigid coupling and Flexible coupling..

    In Higher Capacity turbines , Turbines are Directly Coupled to Generator at


    3000Rpm , so Rigid couplings are used. Angular and parallel alignment must be
    more accurate in Rigid coupling shafts than Flexible couplings.
