课程内容简介(Course Introduction):

This course is built upon combined knowledge from the fields of electrical, physics, material and low-temperature etc.. It aims to teach students how to think across different discipline. The course will be a combination of classroom teaching, experimental demonstration, group discussion and end-of-course examination, and allows plenty of opportunities for students to raise and analyze questions. The course is taught in English, including its teaching materials. The applied science of superconductivity is one of the most leading edge technology in the world. Using English would allow students to closely follow the latest update on scientific achievement in the area and communicate with other international experts in the area in the future.

 

教学大纲(Course Teaching Outline):

The course will look into the applied science of superconductivity in various fields (electrical, medical, high-energy physics, precise instruments etc.). It will start with a history of modern superconducting material, and expand from there around its different applications. The course will focus on the most promising application in electrical field e.g. superconducting cables, machines and fault-current limiter etc.. The course will provide perspective from different fields, aiming to help students’ understanding of the inter-relationship between different fields and different focused area. The course will also mention the outstanding issues in each field, and guide students to explore solutions in the right directions.

 

The content of the course (36 hours) will be divided into chapters with each chapter for each typical superconducting equipment. It will focus on the application of high-temperature superconductivity in modern smart grid. It will also cover low-temperature superconducting material and both first generation and second generation of high-temperature superconducting material. Typical electrical application includes superconductive cables, machines, fault-current limiter, energy storage system, transformer etc.. The course will also introduce various cooling methods for low-temperature superconductor e.g. liquid helium, liquid nitrogen, and non-cryogen cooling methods. It will also cover a few classic superconductor physics model from a physics perspective.

 

课程进度计划(Course Schedule):

1. The fundamental of superconductivity

2. The development and history of superconducting materials

3. The application of bulk superconductors

4. Superconducting cables

5. Superconducting machines

6. Superconducting energy storage system, magnet and transformers

7. Superconducting fault-current limiter

8. Other superconducting devices

9. Exams

 

课程考核要求(Course Assessment Requirements)

Since the course covers knowledge from various discipline, traditional written exam is different to assess students from different background. Therefore the course exam will be in the form of group projects. Students are divided into groups, with each group consisting of students from different background. Each group is required to submit a research project proposal (topics to be decided by the students), and conduct a presentation and Q&A session. The score will consist of team score (based on the overall project performance) and personal score (based on individual contribution to the project).
