Multiphysics Finite Element Modelling of the Fault Response and Recovery of First Generation Superconducting Cables

Date:

Theme:
Modelling and Simulation
Funding:
EPSRC

A detailed electromagnetic and thermal modelling of a Bi-2223 superconducting cable will be performed in COMSOL. This modelling will be complemented by a coupled power grid model in MATLAB. The combination of both would allow for an interaction between the modelling of the power grid aspect and the cable design aspect dynamically. Newly-developed homogenized technique for modelling of the superconducting tapes will be used.
