Engineering solutions intended to raise the unit capacity of the latest high-power gas-cooled turbogenerators are analyzed. Emphasis is on the intensification of air and hydrogen cooling of the stator because the temperature limitations for the indirectly cooled stator winding are determinant for this class of electrical machines.
