  High temperature superconducting (HTS) stacks of coated conductors (CCs) can
work as strong trapped field magnets (TFMs) and show potential in electrical
applications. Pulsed field magnetization (PFM) is a practical method to
magnetize such TFMs, but due to heat generation during the dynamic process, it
cannot achieve a trapped field as high as field cooling can. In this work, we
construct a 2D electromagnetic-thermal coupled model to simulate stacks of HTS
CCs with realistic laminated structures magnetized by PFM. The model considers
temperature and anisotropic magnetic field dependent Jc of HTS and other
temperature dependent thermal and electrical material properties. Based on the
model, a configuration of controlled magnetic density distribution coils is
suggested to improve the trapped field compared to that obtained by ordinary
solenoids.
