Abstract
A high temperature superconductor (HTS) transmission line for transporting electricity includes a plurality of HTS wires coupled to receive and transport electricity. A cooling system is thermally coupled to the plurality of HTS wires and includes a plurality of joint coaxial cooling arrangements each including a thermoelectric (TE) cooler radially outside a inner liquid nitrogen (LN2) cooler. The TE coolers are powered by electricity flowing along the plurality of HTS wires. The TE cooler cools the outer portion of the joint coaxial cooling arrangement to an intermediate temperature that is above a target controlled temperature, and the LN2 cooler cools from the intermediate temperature to a temperature at or below the target controlled temperature. A system for generating and transporting nuclear power includes a nuclear power plant including a turbine for generating electricity, and a HTS transmission line cooled by a plurality of joint coaxial cooling arrangements for transporting the electricity.
