Efficiency Verification of the Superconducting Energy Pipeline

High-temperature superconductors exhibit zero resistance only under pure DC conditions. AC transmission systems often have AC losses due to the existence of AC harmonics and AC ripples. AC loss is an important parameter reflecting the energy efficiency of superconducting energy pipelines, this paper comprehensively considers the interaction between the physical layers of the energy pipeline, compares and analyzes the AC losses of superconducting energy pipelines and conventional cables under different AC harmonics and different AC ripples to verify the efficiency of the superconducting energy pipeline.
