PRELIMINARY DESIGN OF A SUPERCONDUCTING, ROTATING, ELECTRIC GENERATOR.

Abstract

The object of this investigation is to determine the feasibility of the application of supercon ductor technology to the generation of electrical power by rotating electromagnetic devices. Since the anticipated use of such a generator is for long missions, a refrigerator with associated equipment must be considered part of the package. The work includes analytical and design studies of both electrical and mechanical components. The program may be divided into three parts: initial design, supporting tests, and final design; this first report deals with the initial design phase. (Author)
