Definitions
- the invention relates to the construction and operation of superconducting electric machines, including superconducting electric motors.
- the stator windings are usually connected to a supply in one or three phase form.
- a voltage across the winding By applying a voltage across the winding, a radial rotating magnetic field is formed.
- the rotor has layers of conductive strands along its periphery. The strands are generally short-circuited to form conductive closed loops.
- the rotating magnetic fields produced by the stator induce a current into the conductive loops of the rotor. Once that occurs, the magnetic field causes forces to act on the current carrying conductors, which results in a torque on the rotor.
- the advantage and simplicity of the AC induction motor is that the currents in the rotor do not have to be supplied by commutator, like they do in a DC motor.
- the velocity of the rotating magnetic field of the stator can be calculated with the formula below:
- V ⁇ rf/p where: p is the number of poles; r is the radius of the air gap; and f is the frequency.
- induction motors are being controlled by AC variable speed drives (inverters) . These drives control the frequency of the AC supply fed to the windings, making the induction motor a growing competitor in the controlled velocity market, where the DC motor previously dominated. However, one needs to insure that the motor is inverter rated before coupling the two together. The problem of slip will still exist, unless velocity feedback is provided.
- AC synchronous motors have a stator very similar to that of the AC induction motor.
- An AC synchronous motor stator includes slots along its periphery within which windings are placed. The quantity of windings and slots is determined in part by the number of phases (usually 3 or 1) and the number of poles (usually 2 or 4) .
- the main difference between the synchronous motor and the induction motor is that the rotor of this motor travels at the same speed as the rotating magnetic field. This is possible because the magnetic field of the rotor is no longer induced.
- the rotor either has permanent magnets or dc excited currents, which are forced to lock into a certain position when confronted with another magnetic field.
- the invention features a superconducting motor which operates in a synchronous mode of operation, but can also be operated in an induction mode in the event that the superconducting components of the motor lose their superconducting properties (e.g., due to cooling system or other hardware failure) .
- the superconducting electric motor includes a rotor assembly having at least one superconducting winding which, in operation, generates a flux path within the rotor assembly, and a support member which supports the at least one superconducting winding.
- the rotor assembly is configured to operate in a synchronous mode of operation at temperatures when the superconducting winding exhibits superconducting characteristics and in a steady-state induction mode of operation at temperatures when the superconducting winding exhibits non-superconducting characteristics.
- a superconducting motor configured in this manner has numerous advantages including allowing continued operation --albeit at reduced power-- of the motor.
- the superconducting motors can be advantageously used as part of a ship propulsion system.
- the motor could be operated in the induction mode, allowing the ship to continue to travel at some fraction of its rated speed.
- the superconducting motor is simply returned to its normal, full power, synchronous mode of operation.
- Embodiments of this aspect of the invention may include one or more of the following features.
- the rotor assembly includes induction structure for carrying current at levels sufficient to allow the steady- state induction mode of operation. Because induced currents are generated in the rotor assembly in the induction mode, structure for supporting these currents are necessary.
- the induction structure is configured to allow the superconducting motor to generate a starting torque which is at least 50% of the rated torque in the induction mode of operation. Further, the induction structure is configured to allow the superconducting motor to generate a peak torque (breakdown torque) which is at least twice the rated torque in the induction mode of operation.
- At least a portion of the induction structure is spaced from the at least one superconducting winding by a thermal isolation vacuum region. That is, a portion of the induction structure is in the warm region of the rotor assembly, such as an electromagnetic shield member.
- the induction structure can also include a cryostat positioned between the thermal isolation vacuum region and the electromagnetic shield member. Thus, the cryostat not only serves to cool the superconducting windings of the rotor assembly, but also serves to support induced currents when the motor operates in the induction mode.
- the electromagnetic shield member includes a conductive, non-magnetic material (e.g., copper, aluminum) .
- the support member includes laminations, each lamination lying in a plane parallel to magnetic field flux lines extending through the laminations during operation of the superconducting electric motor.
- the cold support member which supports the at least one superconducting winding can also serve as part of the induction structure. In preferred embodiments, the cold support member should be formed as a series of laminations to avoid electrical heating in the cold environment of the motor.
- the superconducting electric motor also includes a stator assembly electromagnetically coupled to the rotor assembly, and an adjustable speed drive for providing an electrical signal to the stator assembly.
- the adjustable speed drive provides a signal at a first frequency to the stator to start the superconducting motor in the synchronous mode of operation and provides a signal at a second frequency, less than the first frequency, to the stator in the steady-state induction mode of operation.
- the superconducting winding includes a high temperature superconductor (HTS) and may be formed in the shape of a racetrack.
- the support member is formed of a non-magnetic material (e.g., aluminum) .
- a method of operating a superconducting electric motor of the type described above includes the following steps.
- the temperature of the superconducting winding is monitored (e.g., with a sensor) .
- the superconducting motor is operated in a synchronous mode at a temperature wherein the superconducting winding exhibits superconducting characteristics.
- the superconducting motor is operated in a steady-state induction mode.
- an electrical signal having a first frequency is provided to a stator assembly, which is electromagnetically coupled to the rotor assembly.
- a signal at a second frequency less than the first frequency is provided to the stator assembly.
- FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional end view of a portion of a superconducting synchronous motor in accordance with the invention.
- Fig. 2 is an isometric, partially cut-away view of a cold rotor section of a rotor assembly for the superconducting synchronous machine of Fig. 1.
- Fig. 3 is an isometric, partially cut away view of a racetrack superconducting winding for use with the superconducting synchronous machine of Fig. 1.
- Fig. 4 is a cross-sectional end view of the rotor assembly of Fig. 1.
- a superconducting synchronous motor 1 includes a rotor assembly 5 having a four-pole topology surrounded by a cryostat 12 and an outer electromagnetic shield 14, both of which are radially spaced from a cold rotor section 10 of assembly 5 by a vacuum layer 16.
- Electromagnetic shield 14 is, in turn, surrounded by a three-phase stator winding 2 and a laminated flux shield 4, here formed of iron.
- iron flux shield 4 could be replaced with a solid metallic shield made of a non-magnetic material (e.g., copper or aluminum) .
- Electromagnetic shield 14 is fabricated from a preferably non-magnetic material (e.g., copper, aluminum, steel, etc.).
- Rotor cold section 10 also includes a cold support member 20 fabricated from a high-strength and ductile material (e.g., aluminum) .
- a cold support member 20 fabricated from a high-strength and ductile material (e.g., aluminum) .
- cryostat 12, electromagnetic shield 14, and cold support member 20 serve an additional purpose when synchronous motor 1 no longer operates in a superconducting state (e.g., due to cooling failure) .
- cold support member 20 is shown as an inner cylindrical member 20a surrounded by an outer cylindrical member 20b having an outer surface 22 with four stepped profiles 24.
- cold support member 20 is a single integral unit.
- Each stepped profile 24 supports one of four superconducting winding assemblies 30 (only one shown here,) each winding assembly associated with a pole of the motor.
- each of a first diametrically opposing pair of the superconducting winding assemblies is wound about a first axis 26.
- Each of a second diametrically opposing pair of the winding assembly is wound about a second axis 27, transverse to axis 26.
- the winding assemblies are electrically connected together and are supported along the outer periphery of the support member at the stepped profiles 24 formed along axes 26, 27.
- winding assemblies 30 extend beyond the end of cold support member 20. At these end regions, winding assemblies 30 are spaced from cold support member 20 by a vacuum layer 31 (Fig. 1) which is generally filled with multi-layered insulation (e.g., layers of aluminized mylar) . This arrangement ensures that the winding assemblies are maintained at their cryogenic temperature while allowing the length of the rotor assembly and motor to be decreased.
- a vacuum layer 31 Fig. 1
- multi-layered insulation e.g., layers of aluminized mylar
- Cold support member 20 includes end extension members 21 which define warm/cold transition regions between the ambient environment and the cryogenically cooled portion of the rotor assembly.
- Cold support member 20 also includes a number of cooling ducts 28 which extend through the length of the cold support member and carry liquid or gas refrigerants needed for cooling the superconducting winding assemblies.
- Winding assemblies 30 are secured to cold support member 20 by pole caps 40 attached at the four polar positions of the rotor and with quadrature caps 42 equally spaced and offset 45° from axes 26, 27 between each pole cap.
- the pole and quadrature caps 40, 42 are generally fabricated from the same material as cold support member 20 and, together with the cold support member, form a complete cylinder.
- each superconducting winding assembly 30 is associated with each pole of the motor and includes racetrack double "pancake” coils 44 positioned within a coil support shell 46.
- Each double pancake coil has co-wound conductors wound in parallel which are then stacked coaxially on top of each other.
- the conductor can be a high temperature copper oxide ceramic superconducting material, such as Bi 2 Sr 2 Ca 2 Cu 3 O x , commonly designated BSCCO 2223.
- one or more of the double pancake coils 44 may include a pancake coil having a diameter smaller than its associated pancake coil of the double pancake, the two coils of a pair being wound from the same continuous length of superconducting tape.
- Patent 5,581,220 which is assigned to the assignee of the present invention and incorporated herein by reference.
- Preferred embodiments are based on the magnetic and thermal properties of high temperature superconducting composites, preferably including superconducting ceramic oxides and most preferably those of the copper oxide family.
- superconducting motor 1 is operated in the synchronous mode so that rotor assembly 5 rotates at the same speed as the rotating magnetic field produced by the surrounding stator winding (Fig. 1) .
- the DC excited fields generated by superconducting windings 30 are locked in synchronous fashion with the stator magnetic field.
- magnetic field interaction is limited to the stator field and the superconducting winding assemblies with virtually no currents induced in the surrounding structure of the rotor assembly.
- the synchronous motor operates at a constant speed, thus the problems of slip and speed variation are eliminated.
- winding assemblies 30 would lose their superconducting properties.
- cryostat 12, electromagnetic shield 14, and cold support member 20 must be formed of a material having sufficient mass to generate sufficient torque to drive the motor in the induction mode.
- sufficient torque it is meant that motor 1 is capable of generating, in the induction mode, a starting torque that is at least 50% of the rated torque. Further, the peak torque should be at least twice the rated torque.
- an adjustable speed drive is used in the induction mode to lower the frequency of the signal provided to the stator winding.
- ASD adjustable speed drive
- the same ASD can be used during startup in the synchronous mode .
- a cold support member 200 is formed as a series of stacked laminations 200a.
- Pole cap 40a is also shown to be segmented into a series of adjacent laminations.
- Forming the cold support member with laminations serves to reduce eddy current heating in theses cold components.
- Each lamination is oriented to be parallel to the direction of the stator magnetic field (B field) .
- B field stator magnetic field
- segmentation of these components has little effect because there is virtually no current induced in the components.
- the induced currents flowing through cryostat 12, electromagnetic shield 14, and cold support member 200 generate tremendous heating due to eddy current losses.
- cryostat 12 and electromagnetic shield 14 are used to produce torque.
- the eddy current losses in the cold support member are significantly reduced by segmenting the components such that each lamination lies in a plane parallel to the magnetic field flux lines extending through the laminations .
- reinforcing layers e.g., fiberglass
- the laminations and reinforcing layers can then be impregnated with, for example, epoxy.
- Other embodiments are within the scope of the claims.
- a racetrack double pancake configuration was described above in conjunction with Figs. 1-4, other forms of superconducting windings are equally applicable to the invention.
- tapered superconducting coils such as those described in co- pending application Serial No. , entitled
