Abstract

The development of bulk magnets based on (RE)BCO-type superconductors that can generate up to 17 T requires the implementation of a magnetization system, sometimes pulsed. Therefore, at least one coil around the high temperature superconducting (HTS) bulk is required. In this paper, we suggest an analytical approach in order to assess the magnetic vector potential and to compute the inductance of a coil having a rectangular cross section and concentric with a magnetic circuit including an air-gap. On a proposed geometry, analytical results are compared with those obtained by using finite element analysis. The gained analytical expressions give accurate results with an error less than 1% on the inductance value of the coil. The induced current density and trapped magnetic field in an HTS bulk during a pulsed field magnetization are also calculated using the proposed analytical expressions of the magnetic vector potential combined with an integral method. The achieved results show a remarkable match with those obtained with COMSOL.
