High-Temperature Superconducting Wind Turbine
Wind power— already one of the fastest growing forms of power generation—will make a major contribution to the future energy mix. However, in order to sustain that high growth rate into the next
A feasible design of a high-temperature superconducting wind turbine generator (HTSWTG) is based on the synchronous generator with a copper stator and a superconducting rotor. HTS coils are generally wound in the form of very thin racetrack tapes due to their ceramic features.
The main focus of wind energy related industries is to identity efficient yet reliable solutions to lower the cost of energy conversions . In recent years, the advancements and enhancements of wind turbine generators managed to increase the power ratings . However, there are a few points to look out for.
Converteam, and Changwon National University are developing a second generation of HTS-based wind turbine generators. 3.5.2. Low-Temperature Superconducting Generator A detailed study of 12 MW, SuperConducting wind generator (SCWG) with LTS field winding for offshore WT has been discussed in .
Moreover, to increase the fault tolerance capacity of the system, a multiple-window transformer could be used . The multi-channel generator is used in commercial solutions, for instance, the Gamesa 10x WECSs of 4.5 MW and 5 MW. 3.7. Comparison of Multi-MW WECS Table 1 shows the pros and cons of different wind turbine generators.
