Air Liquide Advanced Technologies started the development of Turbo-Brayton refrigerators with the goal to have a reliable, plug and play, maintenance-free and efficient solution, introducing oil-free centrifugal compression and single skid system. These refrigerators are able to cover a wide range of temperature between 35K and 150K. This product is particularly adapted for High Temperature...
A superconducting transmission line is being developed for applications requiring distribution of electric power among a number of locations along its length.
AC losses are inevitable to be considered for effective design of High Temperature Superconducting (HTS) cables. Various analytical techniques are available to estimate these AC losses however not sufficient to accurately predict the same. Hence, computational methods are being widely used in the prediction of AC losses as the experimental techniques are complicated to be implemented. YBCO...
Typically high temperature superconducting (HTS) cables utilize solid dielectric materials such as PPLP and Cryoflex for electrical insulation layer. A solid dielectric is destroyed once an electrical breakdown has occurred. However, a gaseous dielectric design retains the same dielectric strength once breakdown has occurred. Research at the Center for Advanced Power Systems (CAPS) has focused...
In the stage Ⅲ(2016 – 2018) of JST/Strategic Innovation Program, 4 teams are developing HTS application prototypes to demonstrate to verify fundamental component technologies such as DC power cables for railway, compact accelerator magnets, high field NMR systems, and SQUID systems. Main targets of this program are to establish fundamental component technologies for each application and to...
