Reduction of AC losses for large-scale applications of superconductors is a critical issue. Therefore, the quantitative evaluation of AC losses is important for the development of superconductors and their applications to electrical power systems. The development of numerical models that simulate the electromagnetic phenomena inside superconductors allows to understand the electromagnetic behavior of superconductors and to evaluate the AC loss properties. Following an approach proposed by Brandt in several papers, a numerical model was developed in order to study the AC properties of superconducting tapes in different geometrical arrangements and with time dependent current and magnetic field. Here we show an example for simple single-layer model cables to show how this rather simple and versatile numerical approach allows optimizing configurations for actual operational conditions.
