Failsafe Cryogenic Superconducting Motor for Propulsion in Mobility

超导机器是游戏规则的改变者，因为它们为远程轻型电力推进系统提供了前所未有的性能，富士康正在建造具有高功率密度和高可靠性的超导电机。这些电机非常适合与液氢燃料电池系统一起工作，以实现零排放推进，因为需要零电阻电导运行的低温温度。现有的超导电机可靠性低，设计和制造困难。该项目旨在建立一种创新技术，以开发基于模块化设计和制造的故障保护超导电机。故障保护设计确保了在超导体或冷却系统出现故障时可以降低扭矩。模块化设计可以简化超导电机的设计和制造流程，从而显著降低Flosart的成本。斯特拉斯克莱德大学在超导电机在低温测试实验室中的应用方面拥有专业知识，并将与该项目合作，开发技术诀窍，并将其应用于航空航天和其他邻近行业的挑战。Flosart为拟议的超导电机技术开发零排放航空和液氢驱动的重型汽车市场。克兰菲尔德航空航天解决方案公司和HVS公司将担任项目顾问。在海洋、重型车辆和火车上的其他应用也被认为是对市场的溢出。

Super conducting machines are game changers, as they offer unprecedented performance for light-weighted electrical propulsion system over long distance and Fluxart is building superconducting motors with high power density and high reliability. These motors are ideal to work together with liquid hydrogen based fuel cell systems to achieve zero emission propulsion, due to cryogenic temperatures required to operate with zero resistance electric conductivity.Existing superconducting motors suffer from low reliability and difficulties in designing and manufacturing. This project aims to establish an innovative technology to develop fail-safe superconducting motors, based on modular design and manufacturing. The fail-safe design ensures the availability to a reduced torque while there is failure in superconductors or the cooling system. And the modular design enable the simplification of design and manufacturing processes for superconducting motors, which can lead to significant cost reduction for Fluxart. The University of Strathclyde has expertise in the application of super-conducting motors in the Cryogenic Test Labs, and will partner in this project to exploit knowhow and apply this to these challenges in Aerospace, and other adjacent sectors.Fluxart tackles zero emission aviation and heavy duty vehicle markets, powered by liquid hydrogen, for the proposed super-conducting motor technology. Cranfield Aerospace Solutions and HVS will be the project advisors. Other applications in Marine, Heavy Duty Vehicles and Trains are also considered as spill over markets.
