We investigate effects of armature winding configurations on properties of fully superconducting synchronous motors using REBCO tapes. The effect of the configurations on ac losses in the winding tapes due to the changing transvers magnetic fields applied to the tapes in direction of perpendicular to the flat face of the tapes is important. In generally, it is effective to close winding factor to 1 for improvement of properties of motors. For the purpose, the shape of armature windings is better saddle-shaped winding than race-track winding. In this paper, numerical calculations on the properties of fully superconducting synchronous motors using REBCO tapes with 500 kW class were described. Operating temperature was 65 K. In order to demonstrate the feasibility of saddle-shaped winding, test coil with 5 turns were wound with YBCO tapes and then critical current measurements were carried out. The degradation of the properties has not observed.
