Mr Jaap Kosse (University of Twente)26/09/2019, 14:00Contributed Oral Presentation
We present the NbTi magnet system that is currently being constructed at the University of Twente for the demonstration of superconducting Magnetic Density Separation (MDS) . MDS is a new recycling technology that allows to separate non-magnetic waste materials based on their mass density, by combining a ferrofluid with a vertical magnetic field gradient.

Future spaceborne spectrometers for astroparticle detection need high bending power therefore, the use of superconducting magnets is the sole applicable solution. Space magnets require high reliability that, in turn, requires high stability. Avoiding liquid helium cryogenics is also an attractive feature. The use of high temperature superconductors (HTS) or magnesium diboride (MgB2) combines...

A superconducting induction heater has been developed and commercialized as a high efficient preheater for the Aluminum, aluminum brass and stainless steel extrusion in Korea. Also, Supercoil had a first step for the commercialization of the SIH using MgB2 magnets in Korea. He created the ‘MAGHEET’ as the brand name of the induction heater using magnets such as HTS (high temperature...

Electrical energy storage devices are critical components of electric power systems of every aerospace vehicle. They are needed for many functions, such as an electrical accumulator unit (EAU) to handle transient loads both on/off the buses, for emergency power during system failure, to provide high-power for pulsed loads, and as an energy source for electric-vehicle (EV) propulsion....

Dr Kohei Higashikawa (Kyushu University)26/09/2019, 15:00Contributed Oral Presentation
We have proposed a novel superconducting electric power system with energy storage function. This system will overcome the obstacles for future large-scale utilization of renewable energies by compensating their output power fluctuation. In particular, the potential of a long solenoid coil as a superconducting cable with energy storage function has been investigated in this study. This means...

The resistive type superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) is suggested to suppress the surge current in voltage sourced converter based HVDC (VSC-HVDC) power systems. The general design scheme of 40 kV/2 kA resistive DC SFCL is discussed firstly. Furthermore the electromagnetic analysis and structure design of the current limiting element are performed in emphasis. In order to study the...

Within a collaboration of Jiangsu Zhongtian and Beijing Jiaotong University, one phase of resistive type superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) for the 220kV transmission voltage level has been designed and manufactured. The active part of the SFCL consists of 128 bifilar coils made of 12mm wide steel-stabilized YBCO conductor supplied by Shanghai Superconductor, and is housed in a...
