Two ITER IF dual channel Cable-in-Conduit Conductors (CICCs) have been tested in the SULTAN test facility. The samples were heated either by foil heaters mounted on the outside of the conductor jacket or by induced AC losses. The steady-state temperature r ...
A spare, 3.5 m long dual-channel cable-in-conduit conductor (CICC) section, made according to the most recent ITER toroidal-field coil design, allowed conducting dedicated thermo-hydraulic experiments in the SULTAN test facility. The sample was heated by e ...
Two short lengths of the full-size NbTi cable-in-conduit (CIC) conductor used to fabricate the ITER poloidal field coil insert were tested in the SULTAN facility. The two investigated conductors, otherwise identical, are distinguished only by the presence ...
We study a diffusive superconductor--ferromagnet--superconductor (SFS) junction with in-plane ferromagnetic domains. Close to the superconducting transition temperature, we describe the proximity effect in the junction with the linearized Usadel equations. ...
The paper describes the design of optimized PCB air-core toroids for high frequency DC-DC converters with strict requirements in terms of volume and noise. The effect of several design parameters on the overall inductor volume, on DC and AC winding resista ...
The paper presents a completely analytical formula to determine the phase back emf of a slotted BLDC motor with interior or exterior rotor and parallel or radial permanent magnet (PM) magnetization and concentrated winding. The formula is based on integrat ...
An improved joint layout layout is proposed for the electrical connections of the large Nb3Sn cable-in-conduit conductors for the Central Solenoid and Toroidal Field coils of ITER, International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor. The driving design criter ...
In the scope of the design activities for a 12.5 T dipole magnet, a short length of cable-in-conduit conductor (CICC) with steel jacket was prepared in spring 2005 as a pre-prototype of the high field dipole conductor. The small, rectangular conductor uses ...
Different FEM formulations have been developed in order to model the electromagnetic behaviour of type II super-conductors. The paper presents a comparison between simulations with A-V formulation models implemented in two FEM software packages (FLUX2D and ...
The growing demand for new technologies in several fields : recreation, medicine, transport, telecommunications and the space industry, etc. is increasingly related to the field of the management, transformation and use of electric power. In this domain, t ...
