High temperature superconductivity (HTSC) hast he potential
todramatically impact many commercial markets, including the
electric power industry. Since 1987, the Electric Power Research
Institute (EPRI) has supported aprogram to develop HTSC
applications fort he power industry. The purpose ofEPRI is to
manage technical research and development programs to improve power
production, distribution, and use. The institute is supported by
the voluntary contributions ofs ome7 00 electric utilities and has
over 600 utility technical experts as advisors. One objectiveo f
EPRI's HTSC program is to ed ucate utility engineers andexecutives
on the technical issues related to HTSC materials and the
supporting technologies needed for their application. To accomplish
this, Argonne National Laboratory was commissioned to preparea
series of monthly re ports that would explain th e significanceo f
recent advances in HTSC. Acomponent o f each report was a tutorial
on some aspect of the HTSC field. Topics ranged from the various
ways that thin films are deposited tot he mechanisms used to
operatem ajor cryogenic systems. The tutorials became very popularw
ithin the utility industry. Surprisingly, the reports also became
popular with scientists at universities, corporate labo ratories,
and thenational laboratories. A lthough these researchers are quite
experienced in one aspect of the technology, they are nots ostron g
inothers. Itw ast he diversity and thoroughness ofthe tutorials
that made them so valuable.
