The aim of the project is to develop a batch processing route for bulk (RE)BCO high temperature superconductors utilizing two improvements that significantly advance the prospects for commercialization. The first improvement is that of incorporating a new phase, which improves the critical current densities and trapped fields. The second improvement is a seeding technique that simplifies the batch processing of large single grains. Both were developed under EPSRC-funded projects and have been patented. A recent independent market survey, commissioned by the University of Cambridge, has recommended focus on two applications which would make use of the higher field gradients provided by bulk (RE)BCO superconductors, compared with permanent magnets. The project will move fabrication from the current small-scale, highly supervised process to batch production by using a Taguchi fraction factorial approach. The business aim is to provide bulk (RE)BCO to equipment manufacturers. Products arising from the project will be incorporated into complete systems, including cryogenics, for benchmarking against permanent magnet systems by industrial partners.

该项目的目标是利用两项显著推进商业化前景的改进，开发批量处理大块（RE）BCO高温超导体的路线。第一个改进是加入了一个新相位，它提高了临界电流密度和捕获场。第二个改进是播种技术，它简化了大型单粒谷物的批量加工。两者都是在epsrc资助的项目下开发的，并获得了专利。最近由剑桥大学委托进行的一项独立市场调查建议，将重点放在两种应用上，这两种应用将利用大块（RE）BCO超导体提供的比永磁体更高的场梯度。该项目将通过使用田口分数阶乘方法，将制造从目前的小规模，高度监督的过程转变为批量生产。业务目标是为设备制造商提供散装（RE）BCO。该项目产生的产品将被纳入完整的系统，包括低温系统，供工业合作伙伴对永磁系统进行基准测试。
