Abstract
This paper has proposed a high temperature superconducting (HTS) field-modulation double-stator (HTS-FMDS) machine with a stationary seal for low-speed and direct-drive applications. The originality of this paper lies in the HTS field-excitation windings, which were fed with a direct current in order to offer strong field excitation, were placed in the inner stator, while the armature windings were installed in the outer stator so that the stationary seal of the cryogenic cooling system could be achieved. Moreover, a ferromagnetic ring was mounted on the top of each HTS coil to prevent the quench of the HTS wires resulting from the armature-reaction magnetic-field. By using finite-element analysis (FEA), the influence of the armature-reaction magnetic-field on the critical current and the electromagnetic properties were carried out so as to verify the validity of the proposed machine.
