Applications of high temperature superconductors

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5097948
The applications of high temperature superconductors to technologies of interest to the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory are discussed. They include high field, large bore magnets, motors and generators, magnetic fusion, inductive energy storage, rf accelerators, computers, transmission lines, and sensors. Basic principles of superconductivity and the special properties (and limitations) of high temperature superconductors that make them attractive for technology applications are described.
