A. Ishiyama et K. Hayashi, Design and construction of a superconducting cylindrical linear induction motor with AC superconducting primary windings, IEEE APPL S, 9(2), 1999, pp. 1217-1220
Levitated metal casting and superconducting elevators are but two of the po
tential applications of Superconducting Cylindrical Linear Induction Motors
(SCLIMs). We are constructing a model device to clarify the behavior of AC
superconducting windings in a realistic operational environment of electri
cal rotating machines. This paper presents design, construction, and experi
mental results of the model SCLIM.
