• ### A Compact Superconducting Bandpass Filter at 360 MHz With Very Wide Stopband Using Modified Spiral Resonators

Publication Year: 2013, Article Sequence Number: 1500706
Cited by:  Papers (7)
| |PDF (447 KB) | HTML

This paper proposes a modified spiral resonator with a tight three-turn spiral and inner/outer tails. The resonator has good spurious response because the mutual inductances between the three turns at the fundamental mode are positive and thus reduce the fundamental resonant frequency f0, whereas those at the first spurious mode are negative and increase the first spurious resona...

| |PDF (1546 KB) | HTML

A novel photon-number-resolving detector based on serially connected superconducting nanowires is presented. The serial nanowire detector (SND) uses spatial multiplexing on a subwavelength scale, the same as the parallel nanowire detector (PND), to provide an output signal proportional to the number of incident photons and avoids the problem of leakage current that the PND suffers from, thus allow...

| |PDF (1162 KB) | HTML

The recovery of Y-Ba-Cu-oxide tape, which is intended for use in a resistive fault current limiter, was, in a comprehensive way, related to the radial heat transfer and sample properties. To check our numerical model, experiments were made on a SuperPower tape and a set of copper wires in a liquid nitrogen bath at 77 K. The inner sample temperature T(t) and radial heat flux density <... View full abstract»

A 6-T cryogen-free NbTi magnet system with a warm bore has been developed using a two-stage cryocooler (CCR). The binary current lead is one of the main components of any conduction-cooled magnet system. The heat flow scheme through the binary current leads greatly determines the operating points and the thermal stability of the magnet system. A pair of binary current leads has been developed for ...

A resistive-type superconductor fault current limiter (SFCL) is experimentally studied with stainless-steel-stabilized 12-mm-wide YBCO tapes. The SFCL is assembled with six noninductive modules, each rated for 120 V, 100 A. The module has several YBCO tapes connected in series that are arranged such that the flow of current in one tape is in the opposite direction from its neighboring tapes. The m...

In this paper, we investigate the recovery process of resistive superconducting fault current limiters (R-SCFCLs) after fault clearance. The R-SCFCL module consists of an MCP-BSCCO-2212 bulk coil. A short-circuit test showed that an assembly containing 12 R-SCFCL modules is able to limit a prospective fault current of about 99 to just 11 kApeak within the first half-cycle of current (un...

New ac applications set high requirements for the performance of superconductors. In particular, in particle accelerators, where large magnets are frequently charged and discharged, low ac losses and high stability must be provided. Otherwise, the cooling costs become intolerable, or the reliability cannot be guaranteed. Although the NbTi conductors have been available for a long time, new wire co... View full abstract»

• ### Approaches for Tree-Co-Tree Gauged T - $varphi$-Formulated Eddy-Current Problem in Superconductor Hysteresis Loss Simulations

Publication Year: 2013, Article Sequence Number: 8200909
Cited by:  Papers (2)
| |PDF (787 KB) | HTML

Hysteresis losses of superconductors can be computed based on the well-known eddy-current model. When using this model, the only difference to the conventional electromagnetic modeling is the strong nonlinear relation between the electric field and the current density. In addition, due to the highly complex structures of superconducting wires, the computation is still usually done in two dimension... View full abstract»

We review the modeling progress of the magnetic response of hard type-II superconductors (SCs) using the critical-state model (CSM). We focus on magnetization loops when a uniform field is applied to the SC and on the levitation forces that appear when the applied field is nonuniform. Different analytical and numerical solutions of the CSM are discussed, and the main characteristics and parameters... View full abstract»
