Abstract

This paper proposes an effective design process for 1 MW HTS superconducting motor by using 3-dimensional equivalent magnetic circuit network method (3D EMCN) and response surface methodology (RSM). During the process, 3D EMCN is used with a simplified 3D analysis model to get electric parameters in short time. RSM is used for the motor optimal design to improve power density. The usefulness of this method is verified through the comparison of the performances of the optimal geometry and those of the initial geometry
