Abstract
Superconductors help to drastically improve the efficiency in every field by making the transmission losses of electrical energy to minimum. Superconductors show special properties only when their parameters like temperature, magnetic field, current density, mechanical strain are within their critical limits. Effect of magnetic field on second generation high temperature superconducting compounds have been studied in past few years. In this paper, the numerical simulation of the magnetostriction effect of second generation superconductor REBCO is discussed. The results obtained from numerical studies is compared with the experimental results reported in literature. The findings show that there is good agreement and all the three samples are showing rapid change in magnetostriction when the magnetic field is above 106 A/m.
