T. Takao et al., QUENCH CHARACTERISTICS OF ROTOR WINDING OF SUPERCONDUCTING GENERATOR IN STATIC AND ROTATING CONDITIONS, IEEE transactions on magnetics, 32(4), 1996, pp. 2365-2368
Previously, we have developed a theory to statistically estimate the t
raining characteristics of a superconducting coil considering stresses
to the conductor, structure of the cross section and mechanical prope
rties of the conductor. In this paper, we estimate quench characterist
ics of the rotor windings for the superconducting generator in static
and rotating conditions of the rotor by applying our theory, and compa
re the theoretical data with the experimental results. The theory well
explains the experimental results.
