Abstract

In a cooling structure of a superconducting motor in which a superconducting coil is attached to a rotor, grooves are concavely provided on an outer surface of a rotating shaft that penetrates and is fixed to the rotor. A refrigerant is circulated through a refrigerant circulation pipe disposed inside the grooves to that the superconducting coil is cooled by the refrigerant.
