Type of article: Article

Summary

THE CONSTRUCTIONOF FULLY SUPERCONDUCTING (SC) ALTERNATING CURRENT MACHINES IS NOW POSSIBLE USING MULTIFILAMENTARY SC WIRES WITH LOW LOSSES UNDER ALTERNATING CURRENT MAGNETIC FIELDS. THESE MACHINES INTRODUCE NEW DESIGN CONCEPTS AND NEW MATERIALS: STATIONARY AND ROTATING HELIUM VESSELS COMBINED DESIGN ; FIBREGLASS REINFORCED EPOXY STRUCTURE ; LOW-LOSS HORIZONTAL CRYOSTAT. THESE GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS ARE DISCUSSED AND A CRYOSTAT IS PRESENTED. TWO SPECIAL FEATURES OF THIS CRYOSTAT ARE: EASY DISMANTLING THROUGH THE USE OF SILICONE JOINTS ; THERMAL SHIELDS WITH A LAYER OF COPPER WIRES.
