Download or read book Optimisation of hysteretic losses in high-temperature superconducting wires written by Krueger, Philipp and published by KIT Scientific Publishing. This book was released on 2014-05-15 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hysteretic loss optimisations through numerical simulation and subsequent experimental confirmation in transport current and background field measurements: ferromagnetic shielding and topological geometry optimisation is used to reduce energy dissipation in HTS coated conductor geometries. Single tapes and coil geometries are investigated. A 3D model capable of taking into account contact resistances is also presented for the Twisted Stacked Tape Conductor cable.
