An electromechanical machine includes at least one coil made from a material that becomes electrically superconducting when its temperature is below a critical temperature. A functional part is contained in an internal volume of a thermally insulating and fluid-tight enclosure of the machine. A wall of the insulating enclosure is traversed in a fluid-tight fashion by at least one shaft for transmitting mechanical power between the functional part located in the internal volume of the insulating enclosure and a space outside the insulating enclosure. The functional part can be used as a heat sink, pre-cooled to maintain the temperature conditions for maintaining superconductivity inside the insulating enclosure.
