Abstract

The cost of superconductor material is a significant portion of the total cost of an SMES (Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage) system. The mass of superconductor required to store a given amount of energy is a function of the magnet structure. Five magnetic structures applicable for SMES are examined in this paper from the viewpoint of their energy storage capacities along with the peak field magnitudes. Two force-balanced structures are analyzed and compared.
