TRAPPED-FIELD, SUPERCONDUCTING, INDUCTION-SYNCHRONOUS MOTOR/GENERATOR HAVING IMPROVED STARTUP TORQUE
摘要
<p>A motor/generator that is operable in an inductive mode during a startup phase and in a synchronous mode thereafter. Superconductor material (12) is included in either the stator (10) or the rotator (11) and a magnetic field generator (15) is included in the other of these two members. Induced fields in a torque-shield (14) provide coupling between the stator and the rotor during the startup phase and then a trapped field in the superconductor provides coupling between the stator and the rotor thereafter.</p>
