Large capacity generators are invariably___________?
Correct answer: D. hydrogen cooled
- A. water cooled
- B. natural air cooled
- C. forced air cooled
- D. hydrogen cooled
Explanation
Large turbo-generators are generally hydrogen-cooled because hydrogen removes heat effectively while producing less windage loss than air. Smaller generators commonly use air cooling instead.
