HTS Power Devices and Systems: Principles, Characteristics, Performance, and Efficiency

Abstract

As the critical barriers to advanced high-temperature superconducting (HTS) device technologies are overcome, practical HTS devices and systems have been enabled and become available for commercial application. In identifying the applicability of various HTS devices, their operation principles, characteristics, performance, and efficiency are fundamental. Consequently, the corresponding verification of a wide range of HTS devices, especially the HTS power devices and their system technologies, has been comprehensively carried out, and the analytical results are presented in detail towards their practical applications.
