This paper investigates the potential benefits of utilizing superconducting materials in machines. The project focuses on replacing the conventional copper windings with superconducting materials in a machine. The machine is modelled and simulated using ANSYS software, both with conventional copper windings and with superconducting windings. A 3.7kw and 11kw 3 phase Induction machines are simulated with YBCO material applied to stator and rotor windings. The results show that the use of superconducting materials in the machine windings can significantly reduce energy losses and improve machine efficiency by 1 to 10%. Overall, the study suggests that superconducting machines offer a promising avenue for improving energy efficiency and reducing operating costs.
