Large electric power systems, such as high voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission systems, need dc reactors with large inductance and high transport current. Such systems experience a lot of electrical loss due to the resistance of their copper winding. Employing superconducting magnets for the reactors provides some advantages such as high current density, low electrical loss, and so on. This paper describes the design of a toroid-type high temperature superconductor (HTS) dc reactor magnet. The target inductance and the current level of the HTS dc reactor were 400 mH and 400 A, respectively. The toroid-type HTS magnet reduced leakage flux and increased the critical current of the reactors. The HTS dc reactors were designed using 2G HTS wires. The Finite Element Method was used for the design and analysis of the toroid-type HTS dc reactors.
