Current Status of HTS Induction/Synchronous Machine Development

Abstract

This paper reviews the current status of high-temperature superconducting induction/synchronous machine developments. The novel performance of the machine is explained through analysis and experiments. Furthermore, realizable uses of the machine in both large-capacity and intermediate-sized applications are discussed for industrial innovation. The development status of some applications in such machines as electric vehicles, electrified railway systems, generators and liquidhydrogen circulation systems, is summarized and discussed.
