Among these, Bi-2212 demonstrates significant advantages in the design of magnets for accelerators, NMR, and similar applications, owing to its isotropic characteristics. After heat treatment, bridges formed between the filaments of the Bi₂Sr₂CaCu₂O_x superconducting round wires. The impact of these bridges on the current-carrying capacity has not been fully studied and understood, especially the influence of such bridges on the AC loss remains unclear. In this paper, based on the three-dimensional finite element method, numerical simulation studies are conducted using the Kim model and the power law model. Within the frequency range of 50 to 100,000 Hz, and under the condition where the transport current is<i> I</i>_c multiplied by 0.1 to 1, the influence mechanism of the bridging and connection degree of the Bi-2212 filaments on the AC loss is investigated. When the transport current is less than 0.5 times the value of<i> I</i>_c, compared with the ideal Bi-2212 multifilamentary wire without bridging, the bridges hardly affect the magnitude of AC loss. However, when the transport current is greater than 0.5 times value of<i> I</i>_c, the AC loss will rises significantly. As the volume of the bridge structure increases, the AC loss will increase by almost more than 10 times. Furthermore, when large current is transmitted in the low-frequency range, the AC loss will significantly increase due to the presence of the bridge. However, as the frequency increases, the AC loss gradually decreases and eventually approaches the AC loss value of the ideal Bi-2212 multifilamentary wire without the bridges. It suggests that for large current transmission, high frequency can alleviate the impact on the bridge.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":641,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Low Temperature Physics","volume":"222 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2026-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149132100","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To analyze the electromagnetic and mechanical behaviors of HTS coils, a 2D coupled electromagnetic–mechanical model is used to incorporate the effect of coil deformation on the critical current dependence. The effectiveness of the coupled model is validated by comparing the numerical results with published experimental data. Numerical simulations of a 2D HTS coil under an external electromagnetic field are performed using the fully coupled and sequentially coupled methods, respectively. The results indicate that increasing the time taken to trigger the system dump has no influence on the energy dissipation rate. Compared with sequential coupling, the maximum temperature of the coil increases significantly under the fully coupled formulation, and the maximum value is achieved at an earlier time. An apparent slope change in the radial strain rate is observed when the quench occurs, regardless of the magnitude of the background magnetic field. Under full coupling, the radial strain rate increases slightly, reaches its maximum value earlier, and then begins to decrease. During quench protection, the radial stress and strain reach their maximum values and then decrease as the temperature decreases.

However, numerical simulations reveal a discrepancy between the dynamics of the center of mass and that of the population imbalance, indicating that the two-mode model fails to fully capture the dynamics of BEC Josephson oscillations. To address this limitation, a four-mode approximation is employed to describe the dynamics of the system. The four-mode model not only describes the dynamics of the population imbalance but also accounts for the oscillation of the center of mass, thereby explaining the origin of the discrepancy between the two-mode model and the simulation results.
