To obtain Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) measurement of membrane protein, an NMR magnet is required to generate high intensity, homogeneity, and stability of field. A High-Temperature Superconducting (HTS) magnet is a promising alternative to a conventional Low-Temperature Superconducting (LTS) NMR magnet for high field, current density, and stability margin. Conventionally, an HTS coil has been wound by several winding techniques such as Single-Pancake (SP), Double-Pancake (DP), and layer-wound. The DP winding technique has been frequently used for a large magnet because long HTS wire is generally difficult to manufacture, and maintenance of magnet is convenient. However, magnetic field generated by the slanted turns and the splice leads to field inhomogeneity in Diameter of Spherical Volume (DSV). The field inhomogeneity degrades performance of NMR spectrometer and thus effect of the slanted turns and the splice should be analyzed. In this paper, field gradient of HTS double-pancake coils considering the slanted turns and the splice was calculated using Biot-Savart law and numerical integration. The calculation results showed that magnetic field produced by the slanted turns and the splice caused significant inhomogeneity of field.

Superconducting field coils using a high-temperature superconducting (HTS) wires with high current density generate high magnetic field of 2 to 5 [T] and electromagnetic force (Lorentz force) acting on the superconducting field coils also become a very strong from the point of view of a mechanical characteristics. Because mechanical stress caused by these powerful electromagnetic force is one of the factors which worsens the critical current performance and structural characteristics of HTS wire, the mechanical stress analysis should be performed when designing the superconducting field coils. In this paper, as part of structural design of superconducting field coils for 17 MW class superconducting ship propulsion motor, mechanical stress acting on the superconducting field coils was analyzed and structural safety was also determined by the coupling analysis system that is consists of commercial electromagnetic field analysis program and structural analysis program.

Racetrack coils are used in many areas of superconductivity applications such as generators, motors, maglev, wiggler magnets and so on. Especially now a days a few advanced nations including U.S., Japan are developing high temperature superconducting(HTS) wire which has better performance than low temperature superconducting(LTS) wire. Most of HTS wires such as BSCCO-2223 are manufactured with PIT(Power In Tube) process, so the shape of the wire looks like tape different from LTS wire with round cross-sectional appearance like normal conductors. Generally HTS racetrack coils are composed of a few partial double-pancake colis and then the double-pancakes are jointed each other according to their applications.

In this paper, the stability criterion for cryocooler-cooled high-temperature superconducting (HTS) coils is discussed. We choose the current, Itr at which "thermal runaway" occurs, as a stability criterion and adopt the relationship between the cooling power of GM cryocooler and the heat generation in coil system to evaluate Itr. We also investigate the transient behavior during a quench process in HTS coils by a newly developed FEM computer program.

In this paper, we constructed 13 turns pancake coil and solenoid coil with HTS tape and measured AC losses of the pancake coil. The critical current of the pancake coil and the solenoid coil were 80A and 109A, respectively. To compare measured AC losses of the two coils, we carried out numerical analysis using 2-D FEM program for manufactured coils. This paper presents current density distribution, flux density distribution and AC losses of the pancake coil and the solenoid. As a result, we obtained that current density distribution was closely related to the orientation of magnetic field and distribution of AC losses were also closely related to the perpendicular component of flux density distribution in coil. The calculated AC losses of the two coils showed good agreement with measured AC losses and AC losses of the pancake coil was about 9 times bigger than that of the solenoid coil under the same turns and length.

Degradation due to delamination occurs frequently in the high temperature superconductors (HTS) coil of rotating machines made with 2nd generation (2G) HTS wire, and the authors have observed other similar cases. Since an HTS field coil for a rotating machine is required to have stable current control and maintain a steady state, co-winding techniques for insulation material and epoxy resin for shape retention and heat transfer improvement are applied during coil fabrication. However, the most important limiting factor of this technique is delamination, which is known to be caused by the difference in thermal expansion between the epoxy resin and 2G HTS wire. Therefore, in this study, the experimental results of mixing the ratio of epoxy resin and alumina ($Al_2O3$) filler were applied to the fabrication of small and large test coils to solve the problem of degradation. For the verification of this scheme, eight prototypes of single pancake coils with different shapes were fabricated. They showed good results. The energization and operation maintenance tests of the stacked coils were carried out under liquid neon conditions similar to the operation temperature of an MW-class rotating machine. In conclusion, it was confirmed that the alumina powder mixed with epoxy resin in an appropriate ratio is an effective solution of de-lamination problem of 2G HTS coil.

A flux pump (FP) can inject the DC current into high temperature superconducting (HTS) field coils of a HTS rotating machine without slip ring and current lead. However, it has limits to improve the value of DC current, and has time constants of DC current according to inductances of the HTS field coils. When a large-scale HTS generator with the FP is designed, a proper point about the inductance, field current, and time constant is demanded to decide parameters of the generator. In this paper, a parameter tuning skill of a large-scale superconducting wind power generator for applying a FP has been proposed. The design of the FP has been fixed, and 12 MW HTS generators have been variously designed by adjusting parameters related with the inductance of the HTS field coil. The induced current values have been calculated based on the FP design. The time constants of the induced currents depending on the DC current values and inductances of the generator have been represented. The results of the parameter tuning of the HTS generator have been discussed in detail.

풍력발전 시스템용 고온 초전도 (HTS) 발전기는 높은 효율과 기존 발전기에 비해 작은 크기로 제작이 가능한 이점을 가지고 있다. 그러나 고온 초전도 발전기는 높은 전류 밀도와 자기장으로 인해 HTS 계자 코일에 작용하는 로렌츠 힘에 따른 문제가 발생할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 계자 코일 구조에 따른 750 kW 급 초전도 풍력 발전기에 대한 모듈화 된 HTS 계자 코일의 특성 분석을 다룬다. 모듈화 된 HTS 필드 코일의 구조는 3D 유한 요소법을 사용하여 얻은 전자기 및 기계 분석 결과를 기반으로 설계하였고 모듈 코일의 전자기력도 분석하였다. 그 결과, HTS 코일의 수직 자기장과 최대 자기장은 각각 2.5 T와 3.9 T로 나타났다. 지지대의 최대 응력은 유리 섬유 강화 플라스틱 재료의 허용 응력보다 작았으며, 변위는 허용 범위 이내로 발생하였다. HTS 모듈 코일 구조의 설계 사양 및 결과는 대용량 초전도 풍력 발전기 개발에 효과적으로 활용될 수 있다.

Six different types of joining between two parallel high Tc super-conducting tapes were prepared and I-V characteristic curves were obtained at the atmosphere of liquid nitrogen. Resistances in joint parts were estimated from I-V curves. We selected the best jointing method among these six methods and its availability for fabricating HTS field coils is discussed.
