Performance Comparison of Cables With Partial Transposition

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Kamil Sedlák, Chiara Frittitta, Federica Demattè

The need of full transposition of the current carrying elements (strands) in large cables is frequently retained as top design criterion for conductors operating in pulsed mode. However, when the transposition error, i.e., the inductance difference among t ...

Thermal-hydraulic analysis of alternative cable-in-conduit conductors for the European DEMO hybrid central solenoid

Kamil Sedlák, Xabier Sarasola Martin, Roberto Guarino, Nikolay Bykovskiy

A hybrid design of the Central Solenoid is under study within the conceptual design phase of the European DEMO fusion reactor. It is based on HTS conductors in the innermost high-field layers, and Nb3Sn and NbTi conductors for field values below 15 T. Sinc ...

Electromechanical investigations and quench experiments on sub-size HTS cables for high field EU-DEMO Central Solenoid

Ortensia Dicuonzo

The aim of this thesis is to investigate the mechanical and thermal behaviour of HTS coated conductor cables for EUROfusion DEMO magnets. One of the issue in large HTS magnets is the safety against a quench. A quench is a sudden thermal runway in which the ...

Enhanced-DAB Converter: Comprehensive Design Evaluation

Elison de Nazareth Matioli, Armin Jafari, Mohammad Samizadeh Nikooytabalvandani

Soft switching in dual-active-bridge (DAB) converters enables their efficient operation at high frequencies, where the reduction in the size of magnetic components could result in ultra-high power densities. Nonetheless, losing soft-switching at high frequ ...
