Development of HTS tape metrics and toolsets to maximise Naval application performance and resilience

Abstract

QUT has developed a novel system for measuring the anomalies in short to very long lengths of commercial HTS tape. We are able to determine the position and the magnitude of any anomaly. We have also developed a modelling system to model the behaviour of the HTS tape at a nano level. Small improvements are currently being made to the infrastructure system. All our work is DC.The proposed new work program will adapt currently available Artificial Intelligence techniques, to classify tape anomalies and learn and predict theeffect of the anomalies on performance in various types of applications such as cables, magnets and motors. Our aim is to be able to predict the performance of a given length of tape whose anomalies we know in a range of alternative technological settings. This will include predictions of quenching. The work will give designers of Naval (and other) applications confidence in their ability to fully utilise the available performance of HTS tapes and produce resilient end products.
