Abstract

<p>High-temperature superconducting (HTS) wires such as those used for Bi-2223 and REBCO tapes, which are commercially available, are expected to be used in future electric power devices and high-field magnets because of their good criticalcurrent characteristics at high temperatures and in high applied magnetic fields. Therefore, the importance of numerical simulation techniques for HTS applications has increased. Recently, special sessions on numerical simulation of HTS modeling and applications have been held at academic conferences and workshops. Generally, the electromagnetic phenomena including HTS materials use the eddy current problem of Maxwell’s equations together with nonlinear constitutive relationships between the electric field and current density. Until now, the user him/herself had to code a special program in order to manage the modeling of HTS materials and formulations of electromagnetic phenomena including HTS materials. However, recently, the numerical simulation on HTS applications using commercial software has been reported. In this paper, the current status of numerical simulation techniques for HTS applications is reviewed.</p>
