Abstract
A reactor includes an outer peripheral iron core and at least three iron-core coils that contact or are connected to an inner surface of the outer peripheral iron core. Each of the iron-core coils includes iron cores and coils wound onto the iron cores. The reactor further includes an external cooling unit disposed outside the outer peripheral iron core, to cool the outer peripheral iron core.
Claims1
A reactor comprising:
- an outer peripheral iron core;
- at least three iron-core coils contacting or connected to an inner surface of the outer peripheral iron core,
- wherein each of the iron-core coils includes iron cores and coils wound onto the iron cores, wherein a radial inner end portion of each of the iron cores converges towards a center of the outer peripheral iron core;
- gaps that can magnetically connect one iron-core coil of the at least three iron-core coils and an iron-core coil adjacent to the one iron-core coil to each other are formed between the one iron-core coil of the at least three iron-core coils and the iron-core coil adjacent to the one iron-core coil, wherein the radial inner end portion of the iron core of the one iron-core coil is separated from the radial inner end portions of each adjacent iron core by the gaps;
- wherein each of the iron cores extends only in a radial direction of the outer peripheral iron core;
- and
- an external cooling unit is disposed circumferentially outside the outer peripheral iron core, for cooling the outer peripheral iron core.
