Definitions
- Superconducting device with a rotor rotatably mounted about an axis of rotation, which has at least one superconducting winding with conductors arranged in a heat-conducting winding carrier and a refrigeration unit in which at least one cold head is thermally coupled to the winding using thermosiphon effects via heat-conducting parts.
- Superconductor materials such as NbTi or Nb 3 Sn, which have very low transition temperatures T c and are therefore also called low (low) -T c superconductor materials or LTS materials, have been known since 1987 as metal oxide superconductor materials with transition temperatures of over 77 K. The latter materials are also referred to as high (high) T c superconductor materials or HTS materials and in principle enable cooling technology with liquid nitrogen (LN 2 ).
- cryocoolers with a closed He compressed gas circuit are used in the temperature range mentioned.
- cryocoolers are in particular of the Gifford-McMahon or Stirling type or are designed as so-called pulse tube coolers.
- Such cooling units also have the advantage that the cooling capacity is available at the push of a button and the user is spared the handling of cryogenic liquids.
- a superconducting device such as a magnetic coil or a transformer winding is only indirectly cooled by heat conduction to a cold head of a refrigerator (cf., for example, "Proc. 16 th Int. Cryog. Engng. C nf. (ICEC 16)", Kitakyushu, JP, May 20-24, 1996, Elsevier Science Verlag, 1997, pages 1109 to 1129).
- a corresponding cooling technology is also provided for a superconducting rotor of an electrical machine which can be found in US Pat. No. 5,482,919 A.
- the rotor contains a rotating winding made of HTS conductors, which by means of a
- the refrigeration unit contains, in a special embodiment, a co-rotating cold head, the cold side of which is thermally coupled to the winding indirectly via heat-conducting elements.
- the refrigeration unit of the known machine contains a compressor unit located outside its rotor, which supplies the cold head to a corresponding transfer unit with the required working gas via a rotating coupling, which is not detailed.
- Coupling also supplies the valve unit of the refrigeration unit, which is integrated in the cold head, with the necessary electrical energy via two slip rings.
- This concept makes it necessary for at least two gas connections to be guided coaxially in the transfer unit and for at least two electrical slip rings to be provided.
- the accessibility of the rotating parts of the refrigeration unit and in particular of the valve train in the rotor of the machine is impeded, since the rotor housing has to be opened when maintenance is required.
- the function of a conventional valve train with fast rotation as is the case with synchronous motors or generators, is not ensured.
- the winding support should be equipped with a central, cylindrical cavity extending in the axial direction, to which a lateral cavity leading out of the winding support is connected.
- the cold head should be stationary outside the rotor and be thermally connected to a condenser unit for condensing a refrigerant,
- a fixed heat pipe should be coupled to the condenser unit, which axially in the co-rotating side
- Cavity protrudes into it and is sealed radially from this space, as well
- the heat pipe, the side cavity and the central cavity should be filled with the refrigerant, with condensed refrigerant using the thermosiphon effect via the heat pipe into the side cavity and from there into the central cavity and there evaporating refrigerant back over the side cavity and that Heat pipe reaches the condenser unit.
- the entire refrigeration unit with its possibly movable parts is consequently arranged outside the rotor and is therefore easily accessible at all times.
- the cooling capacity or the heat transfer is provided by a fixed cold head in the rotor via the heat pipe, which ensures the transport of the refrigerant without mechanically moving parts.
- the refrigerant is condensed in a cycle on a condenser unit, which is connected to the cold head with good heat conduction, with heat being given off.
- the liquid condensate then runs through the heat pipe into the side cavity and from there into the central cavity of the rotor.
- the condensate is transported through the heat pipe under the influence of gravity due to a so-called thermosiphon effect and / or through the capillary force of the inner wall of the heat pipe.
- this tube acts in a manner known per se as a "wick".
- This function can be further optimized by suitable design or lining of the inner wall.
- the condensate from this lateral cavity in the central cavity located in the area of the winding is at least partially evaporated there. The refrigerant thus evaporated while absorbing heat then flows through the interior of the heat pipe back into the condenser device.
- the backflow is driven by a slight overpressure in the central cavity acting as an evaporator part relative to the parts of the condenser unit acting as a condenser.
- This negative pressure generated by the formation of gas in the evaporator and the liquefaction in the condenser leads to the desired refrigerant backflow.
- Corresponding refrigerant flows are known from so-called "heat pipes”.
- the refrigeration unit can be easily adapted to the different requirements of a machine installation.
- a heat pipe many meters long can be provided, so that, for example, a chiller can be installed in an accessible location to make maintenance easier, while the actual motor or generator is difficult is installed accessible.
- the heat transfer or the provision of the cooling capacity is therefore particularly simple and economical in the embodiment according to the invention, in particular since only a relatively simple seal is required.
- thermosiphon When a superconducting rotor cools from room temperature to the operating temperature with a cold head coupled via only one thermosiphon, as is provided in the proposed superconducting device, the performance of the cold head at the low working temperature of the thermosiphon is typically low, typically around 30 K. The consequence of this is correspondingly long cooling times.
- a cooling time on the scale of about one to several weeks - depending on the cold mass and cooling capacity - must be tolerated; or to pre-cool the rotor, the thermosiphon must be temporarily filled with another working gas, which allows a higher working temperature. The latter procedure would require several hours of service in a cooling process. However, this should be avoided for logistical and cost reasons.
- the gas with the highest condensation temperature can therefore initially cool off the cold head condense and form a closed circuit for heat transfer to the parts of the rotor to be cooled. After precooling these rotor parts to the triple point temperature of this gas, this will freeze out in the region of the condenser unit, whereupon it is cooled down to the condensation temperature of the next gas mixture component.
- the individual components of the gas mixture can be selected in such a way that a quasi-continuous cooling can be advantageously realized with optimal utilization of the cooling capacity of the cold head.
- the operation of the cold head at a higher temperature at the start of cooling leads to a correspondingly higher cooling capacity and thus allows significantly shorter cooling times.
- a sealing device with rotating parts. At least one seal from the group of ferrofluid seals, labyrinth seals and gap seals is preferably used as the sealing device.
- Cryocoolers are preferably provided, in particular with a closed He compressed gas circuit, since they have a simple structure and are particularly suitable for indirect cooling technology, such as in the superconducting device according to the invention are.
- Corresponding coolers also referred to as regenerative cryocoolers, have a regenerator or regenerative working cycle in accordance with the usual classification of the cryocoolers (cf., for example, the aforementioned proceedings volume, pages 33 to 44).
- the cold head can be designed particularly advantageously in several stages. With its first stage, parts of a power supply or a thermal radiation shield in particular are then at a comparatively higher level
- the winding to be cooled and thus its superconductor material is to be kept at a temperature below 77 K by means of the cold head, preferably between 20 and 50 K when using HTS material.
- HTS materials have a critical current density sufficient for conventional applications in this temperature range to be observed with a relatively limited cooling expenditure.
- the required cooling capacity is in the invention
- Superconducting device to apply easily. It lies e.g. in the range of a few 10 W at 20 K to 30 K for a synchronous machine of the size class from about 1 to 20 MW mechanical power.
- the heat pipe is designed as a drip edge at its end which projects into the lateral cavity or into the central cavity. This facilitates the entry of the respective condensate into the cavity.
- the configuration can also be made such that the gas movement in the rotating Interior due to the wind of the gaseous part of the refrigerant while dripping is supported.
- the lateral cavity widens in the direction of the central cavity. Then gravity or centrifugal force can possibly be used to support the transport of the refrigerant, in that the transport path of the refrigerant is thus inclined outward towards the axis of rotation.

Inside the outer housing and surrounded by the stator winding 4, a rotor 5 is rotatably supported about a rotation axis A in bearings 6, which one side on one side Corresponding bearing mounted massive axial rotor shaft part 5a.
- the bearings 6 can be conventional mechanical bearings or magnetic bearings.
- the rotor has a vacuum vessel 7, in which e.g. Hollow cylindrical, torque-transmitting suspension elements 8, a winding support 9 is held with an HTS winding 10. In this winding support, concentric to the axis of rotation A, there is a cylindrical cavity which extends in the axial direction and is referred to below as the central cavity 12.
- the winding support is designed to be vacuum-tight with respect to this cavity. It closes this on the side facing the rotor shaft part 5a.
- the central cavity 12 is connected to a lateral cavity 13 with a comparatively smaller diameter. This lateral cavity leads from that
- a tubular rotor shaft part enclosing this lateral cavity 13 and supported in one of the bearings 6 is designated 5b.
- the superconducting device 2 also has an indirect cooling of its winding 10 via heat-conducting elements a refrigeration unit, of which only a cold head 16 is shown.
- the refrigeration unit can in particular be a Gifford-McMahon type cryocooler.
- a pulse tube cooler or split-Stirling cooler is preferably selected as a regenerative cryocooler.
- Pressure relief valves for protecting the system against overpressure during warm-up are not shown in the figure, but are generally known.
- the cold part of the cold head 16 arranged, for example, 0.5 to several meters laterally from the rotor 5 is in a vacuum vessel 23 via a
- Heat transfer body 17 in good thermal contact with a refrigerant condenser unit or condenser unit 18.
- a vacuum-insulated, fixed heat pipe 20 is connected to this condenser unit, which projects laterally in an axial region into the lateral, rotating cavity 13 or the central cavity 12.
- a sealing device 21 with at least one sealing element, which is not shown in the figure, is used to seal the heat pipe 20 with respect to the lateral cavity 13, which can be designed as a ferrofluid seal and / or a labyrinth seal and / or a gap seal.
- the central cavity 12 is connected to the heat exchange region of the condenser unit 18 in a gas-tight manner to the outside via the heat pipe 20 and the lateral cavity 13.
- a refrigerant enclosed in these rooms should consist of a mixture of several, at least two different elementary components with different boiling or condensation temperatures T.
- a first of the two mixture components should have a first condensation temperature Tki, which is generally below the operating temperature provided for continuous operation of the superconducting winding.
- first condensation temperature Tki which is generally below the operating temperature provided for continuous operation of the superconducting winding.
- hydrogen is more critical for this first mixture component (condensation temperature 20.4 K at normal pressure, triple point at 14 K)

- Operating temperature should be provided, which is below T k2 and is about 30 K, for example.
- both components of the refrigerant mixture enclosed in the refrigerant spaces are condensed in a cycle on the condenser unit cooled by the cold head 16, giving off heat.
- the condensate thus liquefied, denoted by k and indicated in the figure by a reinforced line then flows through the heat pipe 20 first into the lateral cavity 13 and from there into the central cavity 12.
- Condensate through the heat pipe occurs by means of a thermosiphon effect under the influence of gravity and / or a capillary force of the inner wall of the heat pipe, which functions as a "wick".
- the function of such a wick can be done by appropriate design as with the help of
- Longitudinal ribs or channels can be optimized to increase the surface or by lining the inner wall.
- the condensate k then drips into the cavity 13 or 12, whereby this process can be reinforced by forming a drip edge at the end 20a of the tube.
- the shape can also be designed such that dripping is supported by a gas movement in the rotating interior due to a wind of the gaseous part of the refrigerant while rotating.

- the lateral cavity 13 is designed as a tube widening in diameter in the direction of the central cavity 12.
- the refrigerant component k evaporated while absorbing heat then flows through the interior of the heat pipe 20 back into the condenser unit 18.
- the backflow is driven relative to the condenser unit by a slight overpressure in the cavity 12 acting as an evaporator, which is caused by the formation of gas in the evaporator and liquefaction is caused in the condenser unit.

If the refrigeration unit is switched off and the cold parts warm up, the pressure in the pipe or cavity system will increase due to the evaporation of the refrigerant. The final pressure depends on the enclosed volume and the amount of refrigerant in the system. If, for example, neon at about 1 bar and 27 K and a minimal amount of liquid k is used as the first component of the refrigerant mixture, it can be assumed that after a warm-up to room temperature of about 300 K the pressure will be over 12 bar.
