Abstract
The research and development of superconductor motors using high-temperature superconductors is being carried out all over the world for the purpose of miniaturizing and efficiently upgrading motors. However, the practical applications of the motors have not been covered yet. In this explanation, the elements which constitute the high-temperature superconductor motor are described; namely, a high-temperature superconductor, cooling, and a synchronous motor .Specific examples of high-temperature superconductor motors for low-speed applications are also described.
