The current repartition inside a HTS cable is very important for determining its AC losses and can be influenced by the uniformity of several parameters, either linked to the physical properties of the individual tapes (critical current Ic and power index ...
This Ph.D. thesis is focused on the development of novel models for calculation of AC losses, current and magnetic field profiles in high-temperature superconductors (HTS). The thesis is concentrated on the modelling of Bi-2223 conductors at 77 K, which fo ...
In the framework of the conductor optimisation task (CONDOPT) five NbTi subsize cable-in-conduit conductors with parametric variations were fabricated. The DC performance of these conductors tested in the SULTAN test facility [IEEE Trans. Appl. Supercond. ...
Pure perovskite Pb(Sc1/2Nb1/2)O-3 thin films without pyrochlore phase were prepared by the sol-gel method on TiO2/Pt/TiO2/SiO2/Si substrates. Films exhibited (111) preferred orientation and columnar microstructure. Diffuse phase transitions with permittivi ...
The use of the low voltage power network for data transmission can produce radiated disturbances. In order to determine field limits when using this technique and methods to check this limit, a procedure must be defined and a standard must be written. The ...
This article reports on the results of a study on the application of high temperature superconductors (HTS) in power systems, with particular attention to the Swiss power network. The study has been financed and carried out by PSEL, BFE, RDP-CREE, ABB, ETH ...
