Abstract
The ability of HTS cable networks to provide a solution for the high power density requirements of electric transportation applications was explored. The high current density and the temperature-dependent critical current features of HTS cables were shown to allow resilient designs for power distribution in electric transportation applications. Heat loads at the terminations are shown to be the primary challenge. Appropriate designs in terms of ampacities of the current leads are essential in using the beneficial features of HTS cables. Thermal network models were used to understand the implications of using HTS cables to carry the necessary additional current to mitigate contingencies and to aid in the designs of effective HTS cable networks for electric aircraft and ships.
