To establish the origin of the magnetic interactions, electronic structure calculations were performed in the vicinity of the Fermi level by means of the Density Functional Theory.

The magnet is wound with a double-tape soldered conductor (DTC) and stainless steel tape, consisting of two double-pancake (DP) coils with 30 × 2 turns each. By optimizing the winding, joint, and insulation techniques, the magnet achieved a critical current of 269 A at 77 K. The inductance of the magnet is 9.4 mH. When the magnet is applied to a direct current (DC) with an amplitude of 200 A, the central magnetic field is 0.07 T. Given that alternating current (AC) loss is a significant issue in the design of CS magnets, leading to higher cooling costs, increased operational risks, and possible irreversible damage to superconducting devices, this paper primarily focuses on studying AC loss in the designed CS model magnet. Simulations were performed using the H-formulation, J-formulation, and T-A formulation models, and the AC loss of the magnet was experimentally measured using the electrical method. The experimental results revealed that the AC loss for the CS model magnet was 5.1 J. Among the simulation models, the H-formulation model provided results closest to the actual values, with a significant increase in computational efficiency achieved by employing a homogenized method. This paper conducts a detailed comparative analysis of the characteristics and applicability of these three simulation models and investigates the effects of the AC cycle, current amplitude, and charging rate on AC loss through experimental studies. Ultimately, we designed and applied a current to the CS model magnet that matched the charging rate in the CS magnet within the tokamak device and found that the AC loss was the greatest during the plasma breakdown process.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":669,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Superconductivity and Novel Magnetism","volume":"38 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143513232","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"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}

Nanoparticles with the formula Co_1-xCu_xFe₂O₄ (<i>x</i> = 0.00–0.20 in increments of 0.04) were synthesized through the sol–gel method, utilizing polyvinyl alcohol as a chelating agent to facilitate precise control over particle size. The as-prepared powders were annealed at 400 ℃, 600 ℃, and 800 ℃ to examine the influence of annealing temperature on the development of domains and size-dependent magnetic properties. Structural analysis using X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy revealed well-crystalline spinel structures, with particle sizes ranging from 5.6 to 8 nm for samples annealed at 600 ℃, consistent with the crystallite sizes (from 5.5 to 8 nm) estimated from Williamson-Hall plots. At room temperature, the specific magnetization of pristine cobalt ferrite, measured under a maximum applied magnetic field of 20 kOe, showed a significant increase from 10 emu/g to 69.1 emu/g with the increase in annealing temperature from 400 to 800 ℃. The observed increase in coercivity (H_c) with annealing up to 600 ℃ is linked to crystal growth within the single domain region, whereas the subsequent decrease in H_c at 800 ℃ is associated with the transition of particles to a multidomain state. The single domain nanoparticles, prepared by annealing at 400 ℃, with low coercivity and moderate magnetization were coated with chitosan and subjected to induction heating experiments. The coercivity of the coated nanoparticles was significantly lower compared to the uncoated nanoparticles.
