Abstract:
A cooling system for cooling an electric generator having a stator, a rotor and one or more superconducting coils is provided. The cooling system includes: at least a first cooling unit for cooling at least one of the stator and the rotor, at least a second cooling unit for cooling the superconducting coils, the second cooling unit being thermally connected to the first cooling unit, the first cooling unit providing a hot source for the second cooling unit.
