This paper proposes a new approach using artificial intelligence techniques to address the problem in modelling superconductors. Different AI models, including ANN, XGBoost, and KRR, were implemented to accurately predict the critical current of high temperature superconducting tapes, with the ANN model performing the best.
For modelling superconductors, interpolation and analytical formulas are commonly used to consider the relationship between the critical current density and other electromagnetic and physical quantities. However, look-up tables are not available in all modelling and coding environments, and interpolation methods must be manually implemented. Moreover, analytical formulas only approximate real physics of superconductors and, in many cases, lack a high level of accuracy. In this paper, we propose a new approach for addressing this problem involving artificial intelligence (AI) techniques for reconstructing the critical surface of high temperature superconducting (HTS) tapes and predicting their index value known as n-value. Different AI models were proposed and implemented, relying on a public experimental database for electromagnetic specifications of HTS tapes, including artificial neural networks (ANN), eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), and kernel ridge regressor (KRR). The ANN model was the most accurate in predicting the critical current of HTS materials, performing goodness of fit very close to 1 and extremely low root mean squared error. The XGBoost model proved to be the fastest method, with training computational times under 1 s; whilst KRR could be used as an alternative solution with intermediate performance.
