Alternative to the H-formulation for critical state simulation in HTS materials

This model was shared by Dong Keun Oh, Korea Institute of Fusion Energy. This model is developed as an attempt of static H-formulation to substitute for the magnetic formulation (A-formulation) of “the self-consistent static critical current model” which has been recognized as an effi …

Coupled A-H formulation for magneto-thermal transients in HTS magnets

These models were shared by shared by Lorenzo Bortot, CERN. The two models implement a coupled A-H field formulation in FEM, solving for H in the superconducting tapes, and for A elsewhere. The tapes are represented either by means of 2D domains or 1D thin-shells. For the second case, …

New benchmark problem for electromagnetic modelling of superconductors: the high-Tc superconducting dynamo

The high-Tc superconducting (HTS) dynamo has recently been proposed as a new benchmark problem for the HTS modelling community. The benchmark geometry consists of a permanent magnet rotating past a stationary HTS wire in the open-circuit configuration and assumes for simplicity the 2D …
