摘要

The Rocky Reach Hydroelectric Project is located just outside of Wenatchee, Washington, onrnthe Columbia River. Owned and operated by Chelan County PUD, this project has eleven units,rnthe first of which was installed in the 1960s. Rehabilitation of the generators for units C1rnthrough C7 was not undertaken as part of an earlier turbine rehabilitation project, as they werernthought to be in acceptable condition. However, a rotating strike between the stator and rotorrnon one of the units in December 1999 shattered that assessment, and ultimately led to therndecision to completely rehabilitate these generators.rnThe rehabilitation of the generators included complete new stators and rotors, with modificationsrnto the existing upper bracket, embedded generator soleplates and other smaller items asrnrequired to install the new generators. Among many other requirements, acceptable variationsrnin the air gap of the generator were specified in order to minimize the possibility that anotherrnrotor-stator contact event would occur. Using air gap monitoring equipment installed during thernrehabilitation, the PUD discovered that the new generators were experiencing air gap variationsrnduring normal operation that were up to 37% of the nominal air gap, which was well outside ofrnthe specified value (20%).rnAfter several different attempts to correct the problem, it was determined that the root cause ofrnthe problem was not as expected. This caused a shift in thinking and resulted in taking arndifferent approach to addressing the excessive air gap variation. It also highlighted that somernassumptions need to be reassessed, particularly with regard to seasonal concrete movementrndue to changing water temperature.
