Abstract
A cryogen-cooled synchronous compensator, comprising a fixed armature winding and a rotor with a field winding arranged thereon, said windings being made of superconducting materials and located, together with the rotor, within a fixed cryostat, characterized in that the rotor carrying the field winding is enclosed within the cryostat in the airtight housing, adapted to prevent cryogen fluid from contacting the rotary members of the machine.
Claims7
A cryogen-cooled synchronous compensator, comprising:
- a fixed cryostat;
- an armature winding made of a material exhibiting superconductivity at sufficiently low temperatures;
- a rotary assembly including a rotor with a starting motor and a field generator mounted on a shaft of the rotor;
- a field winding arranged on said rotor and made of a material exhibiting superconductivity at predetermined low temperatures;
- said armature winding and said rotary assembly being accommodated within said fixed cryostat;
- an airtight housing accommodated within said cryostat;
- said rotary assembly being enclosed in said cryostat in said fixed airtight housing adapted to prevent the cryogen fluid from contacting the rotary members of the machine;
- said rotary assembly being rotatably mounted in said airtight housing.
