SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR COOLING SUPERCONDUCTING ROTOR MACHINE

摘要

FIELD: engines and pumps. ^ SUBSTANCE: system (10) for cooling superconducting rotor machine (12) consists of many sealed siphon tubes (24) symmetrically located around rotor (28) near superconducting winding (26). Each sealed siphon tube (24) includes a tubular housing and heat-transfer medium (40) located in the tubular housing, which is subject to phase transformation during operation of machine (12) for extracting heat from superconducting winding (26). Siphon heat exchanger (22) is thermally connected to siphon tubes (24) for extracting heat from siphon tubes (24) during operation of machine (12). ^ EFFECT: developing the cooling system for superconducting rotor machine. ^ 10 cl, 5 dwg
