Abstract

In this article, the operating current and torque of surface-mounted permanent magnet (SPM) wind power generators with high-temperature superconducting (HTS) armature windings are analyzed. The influence of coil location and current angle on the electromagnetic performance is investigated systematically. The results show that the location of the HTS coils significantly affects the operating current and torque. Furthermore, the maximum torque current angle of SPM wind power generators with HTS armature windings can be different from 180° due to the interaction between the armature and magnet fields. A design optimization method for wind power generators with HTS armature windings is developed in this article. The optimal design is then identified with consideration of the coupling influence of coil location and current angle.
