Patents by Inventor Chandra Reis

Chandra Reis has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • System for transmitting current including magnetically decoupled superconducting conductors
    Patent number: 7608785
    Abstract: A system for transmitting current is described. The system includes at least one generator, at least one cryostat, and at least one load. The system may further include one of terminations, a refrigeration system, and terminations and a refrigeration system. The cryostat has at least one electrical phase including at least one mandrel and magnetically decoupled superconducting conductors that may accomplished by, for example, braiding the superconductor.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 27, 2004
    Date of Patent: October 27, 2009
    Assignee: SuperPower, Inc.
    Inventor: Chandra Reis
  • Superconducting articles, and methods for forming and using same
    Patent number: 7365271
    Abstract: A superconducting tape includes a substrate, a buffer layer overlying the substrate, a superconductor layer overlying the buffer layer, and an electroplated stabilizer layer overlying the superconductor layer. The tape provides for low AC losses, and is particularly suitable for deployment in components where attenuation of AC losses is important, such as in rotating machines.
