Definitions

  • the invention relates to a superconducting device with an electrical conductor which can be cooled by means of a cryogen and the use of a syntactic foam.
  • Syntactic foams are already known in the art.
  • WO 2008/110979 A2 describes a syntactic foam as electrical insulating material for high voltage applications.
  • the syntactic foam consists of a polymer matrix, for example epoxy resin, in which hollow microspheres are introduced as filler.
  • the hollow microspheres may be made of glass, for example be manufactured and should have a thin wall thickness.
  • the hollow microspheres can be filled with a gas, for example with air, N 2, CO 2 or SO 2.
  • the invention can be applied to superconducting devices which have an electrical conductor which can be cooled by means of a cryogen.
  • Such a superconducting arrangement must usually have a thermal insulation for the cryogen and an electrical insulation for the current-carrying conductor. The thermal insulation prevents the cryogen from warming up to keep the cooling energy of the cryostat low.
  • Known fluid cryogens are, for example, liquid hydrogen, liquid nitrogen and liquid oxygen.
  • An example of a superconducting device is a superconducting cable.
  • a superconducting cable is disclosed for example in DE 699 28 129 T2.
  • the multi-phase cable described therein has a plurality of conductors that are hollow, wherein a cryogen can flow inside the conductor.
  • a cryogen can flow inside the conductor.
  • Around the conductor around a dielectric for electrical insulation is arranged.
  • the dielectric is located between the conductor and a coaxial return conductor, the dielectric insulating the two conductors against each other.
  • the cryogen used is liquid nitrogen, which typically provides a temperature between 65K and 90K.
  • the conductor, the dielectric and the return conductor are in turn flowed together by a cryogen, so that the dielectric is also at cryogenic temperature.
  • the tubular sheath is surrounded by a "super heat insulator" formed of a plurality of metallized ribbons consisting of a polyester resin and loosely wound, optionally using spacers disposed therebetween an encapsulating metal tube and a polymer shell formed. Due to the fact that the dielectric is at cryogenic temperature, this design is also called “cold dielectric.” Another example of such a superconducting cable is described in US 2009/229 848 A1.
  • thermal insulation of the cryogen is initially carried out, in which case the electrical insulation is arranged further outward around the thermal insulation so that the electrically insulating material is kept warm. For this reason, such a construction is also referred to as a "warm dielectric" arrangement.
  • a disadvantage of the superconducting device described in the prior art is the complex structure, since in addition to the thermal insulation and an independent electrical insulation must be provided.
  • the invention has for its object to design a superconducting device with a simplified structure.
  • the invention solves the problem with the claims 1 and 12.
  • Advantageous developments are part of the dependent claims.
  • a superconducting device according to the invention is designed such that it has a syntactic foam for thermal and electrical insulation.
  • the syntactic foam can perform both thermal and electrical insulation, the structure of the superconducting device simplifies, since other measures for electrical and thermal insulation can be simplified or at best completely omitted.
  • the conductor can be electrically insulated to the outside, and further the cryogen can be thermally isolated to the outside.
  • syntactic foam is understood in particular to mean a material which comprises a polymer matrix into which hollow microspheres are introduced.
  • Possible materials for the polymer matrix include, but are not limited to, rigid and flexible epoxy resins, silicones, silicone gels, or others
  • Hollow microspheres are hollow spheres filled with a fluid, in particular gas, with an average diameter of less than 1 mm, in particular less than 500 ⁇ m.
  • the hollow microspheres should have a thin wall thickness, which may be in the range of less than 100 m, in particular in the range of less than 10 ⁇ .
  • air, N 2, CO 2, SO 2 or SF 6 can be used as filling gas.
  • the syntactic foam should thus surround the conductor and the cryogen, eg liquid hydrogen, liquid nitrogen and liquid oxygen, for thermal and electrical insulation. If the syntactic foam provides complete thermal isolation, the space on the side of the syntactic foam away from the conductor may be cryogenic free.
  • the conductor is hollow and can be flowed through by the cryogen.
  • the conductor can also, in particular in addition, be flowed around by the cryogen.
  • the syntactic foam is no longer used either as a "cold” or as a “warm” dielectric but as a “cold-warm” dielectric because the foam is warm on one side in the cold and on the other side in heat
  • the syntactic foam may have a cold side facing the conductor and a warm side facing away from the conductor, so that a pronounced temperature distribution exists within the syntactic foam.
  • 150 ° C wherein on the hot side a significantly warmer normal temperature, in particular more than -50 ° C, preferably an ambient temperature, may be present.
  • the syntactic foam may be between the conductor and a conductive element of electrically conductive material, the syntactic foam electrically insulating the conductor from the conductive element. Due to the solids properties of the syntactic foam, the syntactic foam can also mechanically support the conductor with respect to the guide element.
  • a superconducting cable for example, a superconducting cable can be understood, wherein preferably the syntactic foam between the conductor and the electrically conductive cable shield is arranged.
  • the invention is not limited to superconducting cables but can be used in all superconducting devices are used, in which a thermal and electrical insulation must be made.
  • the invention further includes the use of a syntactic foam as electrical and thermal insulating material in superconducting devices, in particular of the type already described.

It comprises a hollow conductor 4a made of a superconducting material, through which a cryogen 3 flows, for example liquid nitrogen. The cryogen 3 cools the conductor 4a to a cryogenic temperature which is, for example, in the range of -200 ° C., so that the conductor 4a becomes superconducting.

  • the superconducting cable further comprises a cable shield 6 made of electrically conductive metal, so that the syntactic foam 5 the conductor 4a with respect to the cable shield 6 as an electrical guide element isolated.

  • Around the cable shield 6 around a polymeric outer shell is arranged as a cable sheath 7.
  • the syntactic foam 5 has a conductor 4a facing cold side 9, whose temperature is also in the range of the cryogenic temperature. Since the syntactic foam acts as a thermal insulator in addition to the function of electrical insulation, the temperature inside the syntactic foam increases sharply, so that on the hot side 10 of the syntactic foam 5, which is on the side facing away from the conductor 4a, to normal temperature is, for example, at ambient temperature.
  • the layer thickness of the syntactic foam 5 is dimensioned such that both a thermal and an electrical insulation is ensured.
