  1. 537. [Invited] Superconducting Wind Generators: Development and Challenges
    Philippe Masson (University of Houston)

    ICMC-09 - HTS Cables
    Invited Oral Presentation
    The study of large superconducting generators for wind turbines has been ongoing for several years both in Europe and in the US. Several very promising fully and partially superconducting designs have been developed using both YBCO and MgB2 conductors. Most of the activities entails detailed designs and derisking activities, however, no full size prototype has been fabricated and tested yet....

    CEC-06 - Superconducting Magnet Systems
    Invited Oral Presentation
    In the field of wind power generation, there is a general trend of developing wind turbines larger than the present 5 MW size because use of larger capacity turbines can increase the total capacity of a wind farm and reduce the cost of power generation. An extension of the conventional technologies (copper coils or permanent magnets) to build gearless, direct-drive generators may result in an...

  3. 526. [Invited] Cost Comparison Studies of Different Superconductors for a Direct Drive Wind Generator
    Dr Haran Karmaker (TECO Westinghouse)

    CEC-02 - Large-Scale Systems, Facilities, and Testing
    Invited Oral Presentation
    Design studies for a direct drive superconducting generator rated 2 MW 3.3 kV 18 rpm have been performed using various commercially available superconductors for the field coils. The electromagnetic design is performed using two-dimensional transient nonlinear finite element analysis by following three-step modeling approach. In the first step, an open circuit model is analyzed and the...
