Design Considerations and Short-Circuit Characteristics of Fully Superconducting Wind Turbine Generators

Compared with partially superconducting generators, fully superconducting generators (F-SCGs) can further increase the torque density in large direct-drive wind turbine applications. Design trends of F-SCGs intend to increase the electrical loading by applying superconducting wires and boost the current density in the armature winding to meet...
