Brushless Exciter Based on Nanomaterials for 1 MVA HTSC Wind Power Alternator

Abstract

The paper is devoted to testing of a brushless exciter intended for a 1 MVA high-temperature superconductive (HTSC) synchronous generator. It was decided to make a ambient-temperature version on the 1-st stage with a latter transaction to a cryogenically-cooled version. The exciter incorporates a number of nanomaterials: rare-earth Nd-Fe-B magnets and magnetic cores, manufactured of amorphous alloy tape.
