This paper overviews the computation of the alternating current (AC) loss in high temperature superconductors (HTS) based on the finite-element method (FEM) using H-Formulation. A great amount of studies shows that the AC loss calculation results from H-Formulation agree well with the experiment results. As one of the most reliable numerical modeling methods, H-Formulation is able to calculate the AC loss from a wide range of HTS topologies. In this paper, we review these contributions on the AC loss calculation using H-Formulation, from small-scale HTS tapes and coils, HTS cables, to large-scale HTS applications.

This paper reviews the modeling of high-temperature superconductors (HTS) using the finiteelement method (FEM) based on the H-formulation of Maxwell's equations. This formulation has become the most popular numerical modeling method for simulating the electromagnetic behavior of HTS, especially thanks to the easiness of implementation in the commercial finite-element program COMSOL Multiphysics. Numerous studies prove that the H-formulation is able to simulate a wide scope of HTS topologies, from simple geometries such as HTS tapes and coils, to more complex HTS devices, up to large superconducting magnets. In this paper, we review the basics of the H-formulation, its evolution from 2D to 3D, its application for calculating critical currents and AC losses as well as magnetization of HTS bulks and tape stacks. We also review the use of the H-formulation for large-scale HTS applications, its use to solve multi-physics problems involving electromagnetic-thermal and electromagnetic-mechanical couplings, and its application to study the dynamic resistance of superconductors and flux pumps.

“…Double-insert YBCO tapes produced by AMSC are usedin the SFCL prototype to save the module space. The criticalcurrent of the double-insert YBCO tapes is 500 A, so 10 modulesare needed to meet the requirement of 5 kA critical current.The structure of a single current limiting module [10] is shown in Figure 3. Each module contains 116 pieces of 0.57 m longYBCO tapes which are connected in a combination of seriesand parallel.…”

Superconducting fault-current limiters (SFCLs) have been the subject of research and development for many years and offer an attractive solution to the problem of rising fault levels in electrical distribution systems. SFCLs can greatly reduce fault currents and the damage at the point of fault, and help improve the stability of a power system. Superconducting fault-current limiters (SFCL) provide a new efficient approach to the reliable handling of such faults.(SCFLs) can be used for various nominal voltages and currents, and can be adapted to particular limiting characteristics in case of short circuits. In this project, dc resistive type superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) is presented. This SFCL is designed for the HVDC system. Uniform current and voltage sharing among the SFCL modules can be observed through contact resistance tests, dc flow-through tests, and ac flow-through tests. Results of tests show that each limiting module has good uniformity in higher current system. The proposed concept can be implemented using renewable energy sources.The results are presented by using Matlab/Simulink platform.
