Abstract :
This paper presents the results of basic research on controversial problems caused during the course of development of a direct evaporative cooling system using water. This is a new, but extremely effective, cooling method for turbine generator rotor windings. Also presented are a series of test results obtained from tests conducted on rotors equivalent to 200 MVA.
