Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for supplying to electric power to a superconductor, in particular to a superconducting winding, which can be cooled to a predetermined temperature for achieving superconductivity.
  • a superconducting rotor with a superconducting winding for an electric motor is known, for example, from U.S. Pat. No. 5,482,919 A.
  • the superconducting winding is cooled by a cooling system to a sufficiently low temperature, so that the coil becomes superconducting.
  • a high-temperature superconducting material HTSC
  • the coil can be cooled by a cooling system that employs the Gifford-McMahon cycle or the Stirling cycle process for cooling.
  • An AC current is supplied to the superconducting coil via brush rings.
  • the brushes can wear down which adversely affects the life expectancy of the motor, and the brush rings can introduce excessive heat into the cooled region.
  • the current is supplied through a current supply line that is cooled only by thermal conduction, approximately 45 W/kA are introduced into the cooled region at a temperature of between 20 K and 40 K. At least 27 W of thermal energy are introduced by the two required current supply lines at a typical operating current in the superconductor of, for example, 300 A. This approximately equals the total cooling power of a conventional high-efficiency Gifford-McMahon cooler (approximately 25 W at 20 K).
  • the operating temperature of the coil increases with the heat loss introduced by the current supply lines. This reduces the critical current of the superconductor and hence also the magnetic field strength attained by the coil. This limits the current that can be efficiently supplied to the motor and makes the operation of the motor less cost-effective.

  • the primary winding of the first transformer is electrically connected with the energy source and the secondary winding of the second transformer is electrically connected with the superconductor. At least the primary winding of the first transformer is arranged outside the cooled region.
  • the transformer or transformers transform an AC voltage applied to the primary winding into an AC voltage in the secondary winding.
  • the magnitude of the AC voltage in the secondary winding of the transformer or the second transformer can be smaller or greater than, or equal to, the magnitude of the AC voltage in the primary winding of the transformer.
  • the secondary winding of the transformer can rotate relative to the primary winding and particularly together with the superconductor.

  • the primary and/or secondary winding of the first transformer and/or of the second transformer can also be arranged outside the cooled region.
  • the primary winding and/or the secondary winding of the second transformer can also be arranged inside the cooled region.
  • the superconductor can rotate with respect to the motor stator.
  • the secondary winding of one of the first and second transformers can also rotate relative to the primary winding of that first or second transformer and also together with the superconductor.
  • At least one rectifier or MOSFET can be electrically connected before the superconductor.
  • the rectifier or MOSFET can be telemetrically controlled.
  • the transformer can be operated at high frequencies to increase its efficiency.
  • the primary winding and the secondary winding of the transformer and/or of the second transformer can be arranged axially side-by-side or radially stacked on top of one another.
  • the primary winding and the secondary winding of the transformer can be arranged at, on, or in a common magnetic flux-conducting body.
  • the primary winding of the transformer can be arranged at, on, or in a first magnetic flux-conducting body
  • the secondary winding of the transformer can be arranged at, on, or in a second separate magnetic flux-conducting body.
