Multi-stacked HTS wires are needed to conduct large current in the power application. In this paper, magnetization losses of the multi-stacked YBCO wire and the BSCCO wire have been measured and compared. 4 types of YBCO wires and BSCCO wires, that is, single, 2-stacked, 3-stacked and 4-stacked, have been tested. HTS multi-stacked wires were fabricated using face-to-face type stacking method. Measurements of magnetization loss were performed under various angles of external magnetic field to consider the anisotropic characteristics of HTS wires. The ratios of the magnetization loss by multiple stacking of superconducting wires were presented. Measurements results show that loss reduction ratios have three distinct regions due to the magnitude of external magnetic field, the material of HTS wire and number of stacks.

Many concepts of external magnetic field applications in crystal growth processes have been developed to control melt convection, impurity content and growing interface shape. Especially, travelling magnetic fields (TMF) are of certain advantages. However, strong shielding effects appear when the TMF coils are placed outside the growth vessel. To achieve a solution of industrial relevance within the framework of the $KRISTMAG^{(R)}$ project inner heater-magnet modules(HMM) for simultaneous generation of temperature and magnetic field have been developed. At the same time, as the temperature is controlled as usual, e.g. by DC, the characteristics of the magnetic field can be adjusted via frequency, phase shift of the alternating current (AC) and by changing the amplitude via the AC/DC ratio. Global modelling and dummy measurements were used to optimize and validate the HMM configuration and process parameters. GaAs and Ge single crystals with improved parameters were grown in HMM-equipped industrial liquid encapsulated Czochralski (LEC) puller and commercial vertical gradient freeze (VGF) furnace, respectively. The vapour pressure controlled Czochralski (VCz) variant without boric oxide encapsulation was used to study the movement of floating particles by the TMF-driven vortices.

The fabrication and characteristics of HTS race-track type field coil for generators was carried out. Field coils are composed of 3 pancake coils wound by 37-filamental Bi-2223/Ag-alloy tapes. The winding machine is horizontal type. The critical currents (I$_c$) of the superconducting tapes were measured with variation of bending strain and external magnetic fields. I$_c$ of both whole field coils and 3 pancake coils were measured as a function of temperature. At 77K under the self-field, I$_c$ of whole field coils was 12A, while in the case of middle pancake coil, I$_c$ was 15A. The distribution of magnetic field B was obtained, using 3-D FEM. Our simulation showed that maximums of B${\bot}$A in x-y plane were locally distributed in both the upper and the lower coils. In addition, the fabrication processes and the characteristics of field coil are described.

Using Monte Carlo calculations the effects of longitudinal magnetic fields on the beam profiles produced by clinical electron beam were studied. The Monte Carlo calculations were performed using the EGS4 code system modified to account for external magnetic fields. The beam profiles for a 6 MeV electron beam with longitudinal magnetic fields of 0.5-3.0 T were calculated. As a result of these calculations we found that the penumbra widths can be reduced with increased magnetic fields. This means that the electron therapy benefits from the external magnetic fields.

AC loss is an important factor in the development of superconducting tapes and superconducting power applications. In this paper, magnetization loss in YBCO coated conductor have been measured and compared with Brandt equation. Measurements of magnetization loss were performed under various angles of external magnetic field to consider the anisotropic characteristics of YBCO coated conductors. The results show that measured values of magnetization loss agreed well with the calculated value by using Brandt equation, especially at large degrees of incidence angle. The magnetization losses were strongly influenced by the direction of external magnet field as were expected.

The magnetic properties have been investigated for the system of $Y_{1-x}$Yb$_{x}$Ba$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$F$_{y}$O$_{y}$ with x=0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 and 0.5. In the magnetic hysteresis measurements, the values of the magnetic critical current densities are in the range of 10$^{4}$-10$^{5}$ A/cm$^{2}$ at the maximum external field 1.4 T. The upper critical field is over 100 T. The critical current density is estimated by the magnetization width .DELTA.M through the Bean critical state model. As the field strength is increased, the .DELTA.M diminishes slowly. The .DELTA.M for the fluorinated sample also decreases slowly with increasing field. It is considered that the large J, value results from this type is due to enhanced pinning center in grain boundary.y.ary.y.

The PVDF fibrous composite filled with iron oxide nanoparticles were prepared by using the electrospinning technique. The electrospun composite have the thickness in the range of $60-80{\mu}m$ with the average fibrous diameters of 500-900 nm. The magnetizations of PVDF fibrous composite filled with iron oxide nanoparticles showed 4.5 emu/g, 3.1 emu/g and 1.6 emu/g at 1.5 T of external magnetic field for 20 wt.%, 10 wt.% and 5 wt.% iron oxide nanoparticles, respectively. The heat elevation of the magnetic composite were measured under various AC magnetic fields, frequency and the ambient temperatures. The temperature reached up to $46.3^{\circ}C$ from $36^{\circ}C$ at 128 Oe and 355 kHz for 20 wt.% iron oxide nanoparticles filled in PVDF fibrous composite sheet. The specific absorption rate of theses sheets increased from 0.041 W/g to 0.236 W/g with the increment of AC magnetic field from 90 Oe to 167 Oe at 190 kHz, respectively.
