Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of superconducting motors, and more specifically, relates to a rotating conduction cooling mechanism and a solid powder superconducting motor. Background Art

[0002] A superconducting motor is a motor that uses superconducting materials to make stator or rotor magnets. It uses the zero resistance characteristics of superconducting materials to enable superconducting magnets made of superconducting materials to pass currents far greater than conventional copper windings. This technology can significantly improve the power density and torque density of the motor, and significantly reduce the weight and size of the motor.

[0003] Based on the above advantages, superconducting motors are often used in wind power generation, ship propulsion, aircraft engines and other fields. Superconducting motors can be divided into two categories: semi-superconducting motors and full superconducting motors. In semi-superconducting motors, superconducting magnets are often used to form the motor rotor; in full superconducting motors, superconducting magnets are often used to form the rotor, and superconducting tapes are used as stator armature windings.

[0004] In a motor with a rotor formed by a superconducting magnet, the superconducting magnet on the rotor needs to be cooled by the outside world. Because the magnet needs to rotate, a liquid or gas medium is often used to cool the rotor, and a rotary joint is used to connect the rotating part and the stationary part of the medium pipeline. The development cost of the rotary joint is high, and it needs to be used to seal the cryogenic fluid medium, which is very technically difficult. Summary of the invention
