No-Insulation (NI) technology for HTS coils has been around for a decade and is a proven method to protect small pancake coils in case of a quench. Without turn-to-turn insulation, excess current can bypass a sudden resistive part, thereby possibly preventing damaging the conductor locally. Unfortunately, having a very low turn-to-turn …
Capacitors store an electrical charge using extremely thin and tightly wound electric conductors separated by an insulator. This can be an electrolyte, mica, or several other types of materials. While they do not allow a direct current (DC) signal to pass, they do allow alternating current (AC) voltage & signals to pass. ...
