Thermal design of superconducting cryogenic rotor: Solutions to conduction cooling challenges

This paper describes the design and testing of the first cryogenic rotor based on conductively cooled superconducting stacked tape pseudo bulks used in a rotating machine with various magnetisation methods. The rotor design demanded a number of unusual features and constraints that required novel, i...
