Abstract :
[en] In general, a metallic stabilization layer is overcoated on the outermost layer of a second-generation high-temperature superconducting (2G HTS) wire to stably transfer current against thermal and magnetic disturbances. Stabilizer thickness Ts is one of the key issues in an HTS synchronous machine (HTSSM) application because it strongly affects the electrical output performance of the machine and the stable operation and reliable protection of the HTS field coil. In this paper, a design and characteristic analysis for manufacturing a 1.5-MW-class HTSSM was performed using a 2-D analytical design code and a 3-D finite-element method. Various Ts values were considered in the HTS field-coil design to investigate their effects on the stability and protection of the HTS coil and the back-electromotive force of the machine. The design parameters are also discussed to determine suitable Ts for the 2G HTS wire.
