conclusions
the interest of investigating cryogenic power electronics
stems from the idea of building power conditioning systems with higher efficiency by cooling electronics to cryogenic temperatures. as can be observed from the reported
literature, most of the research results are on the
characterization of the operating behavior of the devices
instead of the entire power conversion system. significant
advancements in cryogenic power conversion technology
are required for application in maglev trains, aircraft based
on nasa's distributed propulsion system, ship propulsion,
and other high-power applications. With the advancement of cryogenic power electronics, the manufacturing
of a superconducting generator unit fully integrated with
the converter, cooling, and coupling components could
become a real possibility. several studies have concluded
that there is a great potential for cryogenic power conversion in applications such as propulsion motors and power
generators for ships, future military applications, and aircraft where size and weight are the primary design considerations. although the cryogenic media have not been
discussed in this article, the selection and integration of
the right cryogenic system for a given application contribute to the overall performance, efficiency, power density,
and cost of the overall system.
