A 30[kVA] superconducting generator (SCG) is built and tested at Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute (KERI) in Korea. This superconducting generator has an air-gap winding instead of the typical steel teeth structure. The rotor has 4 field coils of race-track type with NbTi superconducting wired. The rotor is composed of two dampers and a liquid helium composed of two dampers and a liquid helium container in which the field poles reside. The space between the outermost damper and the container is vacuum insulated. A ferrofluid seal is used between the stationary part connected to the couping and the rotor. A helium transfer coupling(HTC) has 3 passages of the recovered heilum gas and a gas flow control system. The open circuit test and sustained short circuit test are preformed to obtain the open circuit characteristics (OCC) and short circuit characteristics (SCC) Also. the test results usder the light load (up to 3.6[kW]) are given. The structure, manufacturing and basis test of the 30[kVA]SCG are discussed.
