<p>Provided are a rotor core, a method for cooling a rotor core, and a superconducting rotating machine, capable of effectively and uniformly cooling superconducting coils without causing cold brittleness in an extremely low temperature. The rotor core 10, which is made of a substantially hollow cylindrical member of nonmagnetic material, has a cylindrical cavity 13 defined therein and extending in the longitudinal axis of the member. Helium gas 300 is delivered in the rotor core 10 from the proximal to distal sides and vice versa, which ensures a uniform cooling of the rotor core 10. This also ensures a uniform and effective cooling of the superconducting coils.</p> |
