Abstract
A high temperature superconducting, HTS, magnet system. The HTS magnet system comprises an HTS field coil, a temperature control system, a power supply, and a controller. The HTS field coil comprises a plurality of turns comprising HTS material; and a resistive material electrically connecting the turns, such that current can be shared radially between turns via the resistive material. The temperature control system is configured to control the temperature of the coil, the temperature control system comprising at least a cryogenic cool system configured to keep the coil below a self-field critical temperature of the HTS material. The power supply is configured to supply current to the HTS field coil. The controller is configured to cause the power supply to provide a current greater than a critical current of all of the HTS material.
