Abstract

A small high-temperature superconductor (HTS) coil was designed and tested at the General Electric Global Research Center to evaluate the overcurrent capability for the HTS generator rotor. The superconducting rotor coil is a layer-wound racetrack coil using the BSCCO 2223 conductor. Overcurrent simulation tests have been done to simulate the fault operation condition for the generator based on previous analysis work. The obtained data are used to evaluate the performance of the HTS material in generator applications.
