Presentation / Conference Contribution
Guan, Y., Vedreno Santos, F., Azar, Z., Thomas, A., Li, G., Odavic, M., & Zhu, Z. (2018, April). Performance of Superconducting Generators with Different Topologies under Fault Conditions. Presented at The 9th International Conference on Power Electronics, Machines and Drives (PEMD 2018), Liverpool, UK

This paper compares the short-circuit performance of superconducting (SC) generators with three different topologies, i.e., iron-cored stator and rotor, iron-cored stator and air-cored rotor, and air-cored stator and rotor. The analysis is based on t... Read More about Performance of Superconducting Generators with Different Topologies under Fault Conditions.

Design considerations for high-power converters interfacing 10 MW superconducting wind power generators (2017)
Journal Article
Vedreño Santos, F., Odavic, M., Guan, Y., Azar, Z., Thomas, A., Li, G.-J., & Zhu, Z. (2017). Design considerations for high-power converters interfacing 10 MW superconducting wind power generators. IET Power Electronics, 10(12), 1461-1467. https://doi.org/10.1049/iet-pel.2016.0512

The design of power electronic converters for the integration of wind generated power into the grid is more and more important due to a new class of Superconducting Generators (SG) with power ratings of up to 20 MW. High efficiency of power converter... Read More about Design considerations for high-power converters interfacing 10 MW superconducting wind power generators.
