Assessment of the Thermal-Hydraulic Performance of the European DEMO NbTi Bus Bars

Kamil Sedlák, Rainer Wesche, Roberto Guarino

We present a numerical assessment of the thermal-hydraulic performance of the NbTi bus bars designed for the European DEMO. We consider the CS, TF and PF bus bars, as well as two alternative TF options for high-current operations. The main sources of stati ...

Current Limiting in Overload Conditions of an LLC-Converter-Based DC Transformer

Drazen Dujic, Jakub Kucka

The dc transformers based on an LLC converter operated in open loop near resonant frequency have several crucial advantages compared to other topologies. These advantages are the stiff voltage ratio with a natural power flow, the dc grid isolation via medi ...

Quantifying and modeling the impact of interconnection failures on the electrical performance of crystalline silicon photovoltaic modules

Christophe Ballif, Antonin Faes, Jacques Levrat, Alessandro Francesco Aldo Virtuani, Matthieu Despeisse, Fanny Sculati-Meillaud, Eleonora Annigoni

Failures in the metallic interconnections are among the main degradation modes for photovoltaic modules. Fatigue accumulation due to thermomechanical stresses can result in deterioration of the solder joints or in broken ribbons. In this paper, we first qu ...

Summary of the Test Results of ITER Conductors in SULTAN

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Kamil Sedlák, Boris Stepanov

Abstract. After completing the qualification tests of the ITER cable-in-conduit conductors (CICC), the tests of samples from the series manufacture are running in the SULTAN test facility in Villigen, Switzerland. The key test for the conductor samples is ...

MgB2 Hollow Wires and Cables Embedded in a Mg Alloy Matrix

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Davide Uglietti

The brittleness of the MgB2 wires prevents performing a cable architecture with very small bending radius, similar to NbTi Rutherford cables. Consequently, it is important to reduce the thickness of the superconducting materials in order to increase its be ...

Manufacture of ITER feeder sample conductors

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Bo Liu, Hongwei Li

The ITER feeders are the components that connect the ITER magnet systems located inside the main cryostat to the cryogenics, power-supply and control system interfaces outside the cryostat. The feeder busbars rely on the Cable-In-Conduit Conductor (CICC) d ...
