A huge electromagnetic force is generated in the superconducting coil when conducting large currents in strong magnetic field. Thus, management of stress and strain has become a key technical challenge for the stability and safety of superconducting coil during operation. To accurately predict the electro-magnetic and mechanical characteristics of superconducting coil in strong magnetic field, an electromechanical model on the basis of the H-formulation and arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) method is proposed here with FE software. To verify the proposed model, the simulation outcomes of the coil during magnetization are compared with the experimental outcomes. The coupling effect of magnet at high field strengths is dependent on the position of the coil. To reduce the screening current effect, the overshoot method with plateau is found superior to the traditional overshoot method, and an increase in the stabilization time can decrease the maximum value of stress. Finally, the electromechanical behaviors of single winding coil and two-tapes co-winding coil are compared.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101185,"journal":{"name":"Superconductivity","volume":"10 ","pages":"Article 100097"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2772830724000140/pdfft?md5=f0be644092e97573b6237099e2f8dee3&pid=1-s2.0-S2772830724000140-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140783356","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}

Fault-tolerant current-limiting High Temperature Superconducting (FTCL HTS) transformers are type of superconducting transformers that tolerate fault for seconds and limit the fault current without the threat of burnout or delamination of tapes and deformation of windings. In this paper, the fault performance of a FTCL HTS transformer in a standard IEEE power system is investigated. The studied transformer is a 50 MVA 132 kV/13.8 kV transformer where both windings are made up of HTS tapes. The understudied power system consists of two microgrids with distributed generators. Part of the power in microgrids is supplied by the upstream grid which is connected to the microgrids through the HTS transformers. Two fault scenarios have been considered in this power system, in each one of these scenarios, a fault happens in one of the microgrids. Two considered fault scenarios have an approximate fault current of 18x to 23x of the rated current in the secondary windings. Results showed that insulated windings in FTCL HTS transformers could substantially reduce the peak temperature of the HTS windings, compared to bare windings. Afterwards, post-fault loading is imposed on the HTS windings, to observe their performance against the current increase after fault clearance. In this case, for the first scenario of the faults, the FTCL HTS transformer could tolerate 192% of post-fault overloading, while this number for the second fault scenario is 170%. Finally, the impact of post-fault loading on the full recovery time was discussed.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101185,"journal":{"name":"Superconductivity","volume":"9 ","pages":"Article 100085"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2772830724000024/pdfft?md5=0739bbd85ac438df78e7d50904a2bc05&pid=1-s2.0-S2772830724000024-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139744291","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}

HTS NI closed-loop coils are promising for many easily-quenching direct-current (DC) applications, where their performance is determined by magnetomotive forces, total number of turns, and dimensions. As the primary interface parameter in an application system, the operational current must be accurately and rapidly measured. Generally, this is achieved by dividing the measured magnetic field by the coil constant. However, even if the influence of the screening current induced field (SCIF) is not considered, existing methods for the coil constant may be disturbed by the performance and location of Hall sensors, or experience a long measuring period. Therefore, a relatively accurate and fast method is proposed in this study, which is based on adjusting the output current of the adjustable power supply and monitoring the coil voltage as an indicator. The proposed method was validated through experiments and simulations using an equivalent circuit model coupled with a finite element method (FEM) model, and its current accuracy can be equivalent to the resolution of the employed power supply. It was demonstrated that this method reduced the requirements for Hall sensor’s performance and location, and has a more reliable accuracy in contrast to the simulation method. Compared to the experimentally conventional method, the proposed method presents a significantly faster speed. The impact of the SCIF was considered and proven to be negligible for the tested pancake coils. Even for coils whose coil constant vibrates owing to the SCIF, this method can be adapted to directly measure various operational currents. Furthermore, it was demonstrated that the measurement error can be influenced by the current discrepancy among turns when the coil is not in the steady PCM, and a procedure for reducing this error was proposed.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101185,"journal":{"name":"Superconductivity","volume":"9 ","pages":"Article 100084"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2772830724000012/pdfft?md5=757d78df261995052a2978d6aeb0bdcc&pid=1-s2.0-S2772830724000012-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139394828","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}

Despite the great potentials, recent studies have highlighted the challenges posed by screening currents, which are featured by a highly nonuniform current distribution in the superconducting layer. In this paper, we report a comprehensive study on the behaviors of screening currents in a compact REBCO coil, specifically the screening-current-induced magnetic fields and strains. Experiments were carried out in the self-generated magnetic field and a background field, respectively. In the self-field condition, the full hysteresis of the magnetic field was obtained by applying current sweeps with repeatedly reversed polarity, as the nominal center field reached 9.17 T with a maximum peak current of 350 A. In a background field of 23.15 T, the insert coil generated a center field of 4.17 T with an applied current of 170 A. Ultimately, a total center field of 32.58 T was achieved before quench. Both the sequential model and the coupled model considering the perpendicular field modification due to conductor deformation are applied. The comparative study shows that, for this coil, the electromagnetic–mechanical coupling plays a trivial role in self-field conditions up to 9 T. In contrast, with a high axial field dominated by the background field, the coupling effect has a stronger influence on the predicted current and strain distributions. Further discussions regarding the role of background field on the strains in the insert suggest potential design strategies to maximize the total center field.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101185,"journal":{"name":"Superconductivity","volume":"9 ","pages":"Article 100082"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2772830723000479/pdfft?md5=aa18d1d395434a3c0a7d6967e6ce67f7&pid=1-s2.0-S2772830723000479-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139014596","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}
