Proposal of a Fully Superconducting Motor for Liquid Hydrogen Pump With MgB2 Wire

چکیده
The outline design of a fully superconducting motor for liquid hydrogen pump with a magnesium-diboride (MgB2) superconducting wire is carried out to present various advantages arising from its prospective performances. The squirrel-cage rotor winding composed of superconducting loops with the MgB2 wire enables us to operate the motor not only in a slip mode but also in a synchronous rotation mode, and consequently the rotor winding loss can be suppressed drastically. Furthermore, it would be expected that the stator winding loss becomes smaller by using the MgB2 wire compared with familiar normal metals as typified by a copper. The time evolution of magnetic field distribution around the stator winding is obtained by means of a finite element analysis in order to estimate the AC loss and the primary circuit resistance.

Controlled chemical doping of magnesium diboride (MgB2) has been shown to substantially improve its superconducting properties to the levels required for high field magnets, but the doping is difficult to accomplish through the usual route of solid state reaction and diffusion. Further, superconducting cables of MgB2 are difficult to fabricate because of the friable nature of the material. In t...

To reduce the usage of liquid helium in MRI magnets, magnesium diboride (MgB2), a high temperature superconductor, has been considered for use in a design of conduction cooled MRI magnets. Compared to NbTi wires the normal zone propagation velocity (NZPV) in MgB2 is much slower leading to a higher temperature rise and the necessity of active quench protection. The temperature rise, resistive vo...

Measurements of 10 GHz microwave surface resistance, Rs , of dense MgB2 wire and pellet are reported. Significant improvements are observed in the wire with reduction of porosity. The data lie substantially above the theoretical estimates for a pure Bardeen–Cooper–Schrieffer s-wave superconductor. However, the Rs ~20 K! of the wire is an order of magnitude lower than that of polycrystal YBa2Cu3...

Composites consisting of Mg and MgB2 phases were fabricated by liquid-metal infiltration following two routes. First, a preform of MgB2 powders was pressure infiltrated at 800 °C with liquid Mg, which was subsequently solidified. Second, a preform of B powders was pressure infiltrated with liquid Mg at 700 °C, resulting in partial, in situ formation of the MgB2 phase. Subsequent annealing at 95...
