A mathematical model has been developed for calculating the distribution of azimuthal velocities and the shape of the free surface of oil in the compartments of an oil bath of a hydro-generator. The mathematical model of oil flow is verified by comparing the calculated radial-vertical distributions of normalized azimuthal velocities obtained on its basis with the free surface of the oil with the empirical data of third-party authors. The verification showed a good fit between the calculated and experimental distributions, which allows recommending the developed mathematical model for use in engineering practice. Calculations were carried out for the modes of the oil movement in the thrust bearing and the guide bearing of the hydro-generator of the Bajo de Mina HPP. Recommendations are made for the elimination of emergency modes associated with oil overflow through the fencing of the thrust bearing oil bath, which separate oil bath from the shaft of hydro-generator.
