Abstract

A Monte-Carlo grain growth simulation has been coupled with existing grain boundary percolation models to calculate the critical current density (J c) for realistic coated conductor grain structures. In-grain dissipation is included in the model in order to investigate the conditions for which grain boundaries cease to be the limiting factor. Using the model the effects of conductor dimensions and grain size have been investigated and the regimes of grain or grain boundary limitation have been addressed, with reference to the use of coated conductors in magnetic field.
