Superconducting Electric Power Engineering Lab
Machine-translated · View original
The lab applies superconducting technology to electrical machinery and to electric propulsion for aircraft.
AboutAbout the lab
Taking on electrical machinery and electric propulsion with superconducting technology
The lab conducts research aimed at applying superconducting technology to a wide range of industrial fields.
It works to clarify the electromagnetic characteristics of high-temperature oxide superconducting wires and conductors, and to improve quantitative techniques for evaluating them.
The lab also conducts applied research on electrical machinery such as rotating machines, transformers, and cables.
Professor Miyazaki aims to build electric propulsion systems for aircraft, using generators and motors based on superconducting technology.
Key terms
