  • Abstract
    An equivalent circuit for a distributed superconductive energy converter, the operation of which is based on the principle of flux conservation in superconducting loops, is presented. The Laplace transformation is used to analyze the circuit, and the solutions are examined in order to optimize the operation of the device. While previously only dc operation of such a device has been realized, it is shown herein that under certain conditions a low frequency ac mode can be achieved.
