Hysteresis losses in MgB2 superconductors exposed to combinations of low AC and high DC magnetic fields and transport currents
چکیده انگلیسی


• A method for calculating hysteresis losses in the low AC – high DC magnetic field and transport current range has been shown.
• The method can be used in the design of wind turbine generators for calculating the losses in the generator DC rotor.
• First estimates indicate tolerable current ripple in the 0.1% range for a 4 T DC MgB2 generator rotor coil.

MgB2 superconductors are considered for generator field coils for direct drive wind turbine generators. In such coils, the losses generated by AC magnetic fields may generate excessive local heating and add to the thermal load, which must be removed by the cooling system. These losses must be evaluated in the design of the generator to ensure a sufficient overall efficiency. A major loss component is the hysteresis losses in the superconductor itself. In the high DC – low AC current and magnetic field region experimental results still lack for MgB2 conductors. In this article we reason towards a simplified theoretical treatment of the hysteresis losses based on available models in the literature with the aim of setting the basis for estimation of the allowable magnetic fields and current ripples in superconducting generator coils intended for large wind turbine direct drive generators. The resulting equations use the DC in-field critical current, the geometry of the superconductor and the magnitude of the AC magnetic field component as parameters. This simplified approach can be valuable in the design of MgB2 DC coils in the 1–4 T range with low AC magnetic field and current ripples.
