Electrical machines with superconducting field windings. Volume 1: Turbogenerators
Abstract
The electrical and mechanical design of a 3000 MVA synchronous generator for 3000 r/min using superconducting field windings is described. Special attention is given to the rotor and the associated thermal and mechanical stress problems. The difficulties encountered are outlined. This machine is compared with a conventional 1500 MVA generator of approximately the same dimensions.
