Abstract

This work presents the complex results of the FEM H-formulation modeling of the thrust magnetic bearing based on 2G HTS tapes. The simulated bearing consists of the HTS stator and PMs rotor. In the model we have used the magnetic and transport characteristics of industrial GdBa2Cu3O7-x superconductors and also took into account the thermal properties of each layer of high-temperature superconducting tape and the features of the layered structure of the whole stack. The numerical simulation was performed using the finite element method. The developed model feature is a direct magnetic assembly rotation simulation. Load characteristics and losses in the system at several operating temperatures were obtained. Comparison with the experimental results was done.
