Abstract
This work proposes a modeling method to simulate how temperature rise, due to power dissipation, affects the performance of a HTS limiter. The spatial temperature rise distribution across and along a HTS transmission line is determined by heat generation and propagation, for a certain power, frequency, geometry and material properties, and affects the local description of the nonlinearities. To model this, we use an iterative technique that combines the Weeks-Sheen method to calculate the current density distribution with a finite element method to calculate the temperature rise at each point of the transmission line. Simulations of coplanar waveguide HTS limiters on Sapphire and Quartz are presented.Citation
