Abstract
The topology category based on high-temperature superconducting pulse power transformer (HTSPPT) is an important branch of inductive pulse power supply (IPPS) for rail guns. Optimization design of the HTSPPT can improve the overall performance of the IPPS system. The purpose of this article is to design a 40-kJ air-core HTSPPT module with a high-temperature superconducting (HTS) primary winding and a normally conducting secondary winding. According to the application characteristics of the HTSPPT, under the constraints of the three main performance indicators of critical current, stored energy, and coupling coefficient, the amount of HTS tapes and the volume of the entire HTSPPT are reduced as much as possible. The design of the secondary winding combines the electromagnetic launch requirements for the current pulse in the approximate flat waveform and steep pulse rising edge. With this optimized design, a 43-kJ HTSPPT module with a primary inductance of 79.4 mH, a secondary inductance of <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$255.4~\mu \text{H}$ </tex-math></inline-formula> , and a coupling coefficient of 0.97 was obtained. Finally, the maximum stress and strain of the designed HTSPPT in the energy storage state are analyzed through the electromagnetic (EM) structure coupling field.
