Zusammenfassung: | A superconducting electrical machine 1 such as a ship's engine has a rotor 10 and a stator 30, the rotor having superconductive windings 15. The rotor 10 includes an additional normally-conducting winding 55 in parallel to the superconducting winding 15 but not normally connected. In the event of a fault in the superconducting winding 15, the additional winding 55 can take a sufficient current to run the engine to maintain mobility of the ship. Moreover, while this normally-conducting operation is under way, the heat generated warms the cooled engine ready for maintenance. |
