Abstract
Multi-stacked HTS tapes are needed to conduct large current in the power application. In this paper magnetization losses of the multi-stacked YBCO coated conductor and the BSCCO tape have been measured and compared. Magnetization losses of single tape, 2-stacked, 3-stacked and 4-stacked HTS tapes have been presented in this paper. Multi-stacked tapes have been fabricated using face-to-face type stacking method. Measurements of magnetization loss were performed under various stacked of external magnetic field to consider the anisotropic characteristics of HTS tapes. Test results show that loss density per unit volume decreased for both YBCO coated conductors and BSCCO tapes when the stacking number of tapes is increased. As the external magnetic field decreased, the ratio of decrement has risen because the full penetration magnetic field(Bp) of the multi-stacked tape is larger than that of the single tape.
