Abstract

With the improvement of high temperature superconducting (HTS) materials, HTS machines have shown better competitive advantages in wind power generation and other fields. However, the conventional structure of superconducting machines has led to low reliability of the machines due to the complex structures such as brush and rotating dewar. Based on the analysis of the properties of second-generation high-temperature superconducting strips — YBCO strips, a kind of rotating pole shoe superconducting machine (RPHTSM) with dual HTS coils is proposed in this paper, which avoids the use of brush and rotating dewar used in the conventional HTS machine. The three-dimensional model for magnetic field analysis of the RPHTSM is established and the structure of the RPHTSM is optimized according to the calculation. A two-dimensional simplified model was developed and based on which the output performance of the machine was calculated. By comparing with the conventional HTS machine, it is concluded that the dual-coil RPHTSM has great advantage in reducing the consumption of superconducting strips and the inertia of the rotor.
