Abstract
The High Temperature Superconducting (HTS) Conductor on Round Core (CORC) cables have been widely utilized to fabricate various superconducting applications for power transmission, fusion, and magnets with high current density. Understanding the AC loss behavior of CORC cables during the cable design process is essential for analyzing its electromagnetic performance and evaluating its future industry potential. The aim of our research is to investigate the AC loss dependence caused by the magnitude and frequency of applied external variations to the magnetic field. This paper describes the simulation models of HTS CORC cables based on the finite-element method (FEM) by using an H-formulation in a commercial software named COMSOL Multiphysics. Three-dimensional (3-D) CORC models, with three HTS tapes wound around each layer, were built and analyzed. The 3-D CORC models, built using the FEM method, were then verified with published experimental results. AC losses dissipated in the CORC cables, resulting from applied external varying magnetic field, were calculated and examined.
