AFRL-RZ-WP-TP-2012-0120 PROPERTIES OF A YBCO PANCAKE COIL OPERATING WITH AC CURRENT AT FREQUENCIES UP TO 1000 Hz (POSTPRINT)

چکیده
A small pancake coil was wound using 1.2m long, 10 mm wide YBCO coated superconductor tape with impregnation by epoxy resin. The coil was immersed in liquid nitrogen and tested in several regimes. In the DC regime, we measured the I-V curve, the hysteresis of the magnetic field-current curve at liquid nitrogen temperature and the radial component of the coil field at the coil edges. The critical currents of a short sample at 77 K were also measured and compared with those of the coil. The AC losses measured in the frequency range from 60Hz to 1000Hz are compared with those of a similar coil wound with copper tape. The coil heating due to AC losses was monitored. At 60Hz, the losses of the YBCO coil were nearly two orders of magnitude lower than those in the Cu coil. With increasing frequency, this difference becomes smaller, but the YBCO coil still exhibited lower losses at 1000Hz.

Nanoparticles of BaSnO3 were incorporated into YBa2Cu3O7−x (YBCO) films on LaAlO3 substrates for magnetic flux pinning enhancements. More than an order of magnitude improvement in the high field magnetization Jc at 6 T at 77 K was observed as compared to regular YBCO films. The irreversibility field (Hirr) was increased to 8.5 T at 77 K and to 13.4 T at 65 K. The in-field transport current meas...
متن کاملAc Loss in Striped (filamentary) Ybco Coated Conductors Leading to Designs for High Frequencies and Field-sweep Amplitudes
AC losses of YBCO coated conductors are investigated by calculation and experiment for the higher frequency regime. Previous research using YBCO film deposited onto single-crystal substrates demonstrated the effectiveness of ‘striping’ or filamentary subdivision as a technique for AC loss reduction. As a result of these studies the idea of subdividing YBCO ‘coated conductors’ (YBCO, overlayer, ...
