Rotor of rotary electric machine
In order to improve cooling performance of a rotor of a rotary electric machine, attention is paid to the relation between the secondary flow of a cooling gas generated inside ventilation holes for the cooling gas provided in a rotor winding formed by stacking a conductor and an interlayer insulating layer and the main flow of the cooling gas during the rotary motion of the rotor, and the secondary flow of the cooling gas is suppressed by changing the shape of bulges appearing in a linear shape in the stacked direction on an inner wall surface of each rotor winding ventilation hole on a negative pressure side.
1. A rotor of a rotary electric machine comprising:
channels provided in a rotor and allowing a cooling gas to flow in a rotation axis direction; and
rotor winding ventilation holes communicating to the channels and provided in a rotor winding in which a conductor and an interlayer insulating layer are stacked so as to penetrate the conductor and the interlayer insulating layer in the stacked direction to allow the cooling gas to flow in a radial direction of rotation,
wherein the rotor winding ventilation hole has a cross-sectional shape in the rotating axis direction in which an inner wall surface on a negative pressure side is inclined toward a positive pressure side, from both end portions to a central portion and is not inclined at the central portion.
2. The rotor of the rotary electric machine according to claim 1 ,
wherein the rotor winding ventilation hole is formed to have the cross-sectional shape in which widths of both end portions are enlarged to the negative pressure side to be larger than a width of the central portion.
3. The rotor of the rotary electric machine according to claim 1 ,
wherein the rotor winding ventilation hole is formed to have the cross-sectional shape in which an inner wall surface on a positive pressure side is inclined in the same manner as the inner wall surface on the negative pressure side to be parallel to each other.
4. A rotor of a rotary electric machine comprising:
channels provided in a rotor and allowing a cooling gas to flow in a rotation axis direction; and
rotor winding ventilation holes communicating to the channels and provided in a rotor winding in which a conductor and an interlayer insulating layer are stacked so as to penetrate the conductor and the interlayer insulating layer in the stacked direction to allow the cooling gas to flow in a radial direction of rotation,
wherein the rotor winding ventilation hole has a cross-sectional shape in the rotating axis direction in which an inner wall surface on a negative pressure side is inclined from both end portions to a central portion and is not inclined at the central portion,
wherein the rotor winding ventilation hole is formed to have the cross-sectional shape in which widths of both end portions are enlarged to the negative pressure side to be larger than a width of the central portion.
