In an HTS-HIM, the high temperature superconducting magnets carrying DC currents under alternating background magnetic fields work as excitation magnets. Under extreme electromagnetic conditions, the voltage, loss, and temperature of the HTS magnets will increase because of the dynamic resistance effect. To predict the behaviors of the HTS magnet, it is necessary to analyze its electromagnetic-thermal characteristics by using a multiphysics model. This paper establishes a 2D axisymmetric multilayer multiphysics HTS magnet model based on the <strong><em>H</em></strong>-formulation. By using this multilayer multiphysics model, the electromagnetic-thermal characteristics of each turn can be analyzed. Meanwhile, this model can not only analyze the total loss and loss components of each layer under various operating conditions but also predict the temperature and quench behaviors of each part. The result shows that the loss components of the REBCO layer have distinct temperature dependence. When considering the thermal field effect, the magnetization loss of the REBCO layer reduces by 75% and the transport loss of the REBCO layer increases by 45% under high direct currents and high AC magnetic fields. Meanwhile, the temperature of the external turn is higher than the internal turn, and the external turn is at risk of quench in the operating process when the direct currents and AC magnetic fields are high. The multilayer multiphysics model is a powerful tool for designing, analyzing, and optimizing the HTS magnets in HTS-HIMs, and this multiphysics modelling technique can be utilized in modelling and simulating HTS REBCO magnets in various applications.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":101185,"journal":{"name":"Superconductivity","volume":"14 ","pages":"Article 100157"},"PeriodicalIF":5.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143696133","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These applications generally involve diverse environments featuring AC or DC conditions, where superconducting properties are influenced by various factors. Specifically, the most concerning properties in high temperature superconducting (HTS) magnets include critical current, AC loss, screening current effects, and so on. Finite element method is widely used in reliable numerical studies for these properties. Several popular models have been proposed and developed to get higher precision and less calculation time. However, constrained by computational resources, they still have challenges in supporting high-throughput analysis. In various studies on electromagnetic characteristics of magnets, a substantial amount of data is often required to facilitate the introduction of artificial intelligence (AI) methods or optimization approaches. This paper proposes an adaptive-extended J-model to compute superconducting properties, further enhancing the efficiency of electromagnetic study and also serving to generate dataset for AI methods. It reduces computation time to only 20%–30% of that of the existing fastest model while maintaining similar levels of accuracy. By using this method as a data-generative tool, the dataset of a series of HTS solenoids including 2000 turns is expeditiously obtained and employed to predict the screening current induced field. The predictive performance is reliable under the dataset calculation time of mere minutes. This study significantly shortens the time to realize big dataset demands, accelerating electromagnetic study of superconducting magnets in various scenarios.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":101185,"journal":{"name":"Superconductivity","volume":"13 ","pages":"Article 100156"},"PeriodicalIF":5.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143629389","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
