Abstract :
The AC losses of YBCO coated conductors fabricated by the IBAD/PLD method were electromagnetically measured. Both the magnetization loss without transport current and the total AC loss during the simultaneous application of AC transport current and an AC external magnetic field were measured. The AC losses were numerically calculated using the one-dimensional FEM model. The magnetic field dependence and the spatial distribution of critical current density were taken into account in numerical calculations, and the calculated AC losses were compared with the measured AC losses. The critical current, the transport current, and the applied external magnetic field were varied in order to calculate the total AC loss systematically.
