Gabriel Hajiri

Eng. Gabriel Hajiri, University of Lorraine, France

After earning his master's degree in 2019, Gabriel Hajiri began working as a research engineer at the GREEN laboratory. His work involved designing, manufacturing, and testing a cooling system for characterizing superconducting devices at 25 K. In 2020, he began his thesis on superconducting cables capable of limiting fault currents under the supervision of Professor Jean Lévêque and Associate Professor Kévin Berger. He actively participated in the SuperRail project until February 2022, collaborating with Nexans, SNCF, and Absolute System to introduce the first superconducting cable in France. Additionally, he contributed to the SCRYPT project, collaborating with Airbus UpNext, Safran Tech, and Absolute System to manufacture a sub-cooler for partially superconducting machines. He also played a significant role in the IMOTHEP project, sizing superconducting cables for various aircraft architectures. Gabriel's expertise extends to analytical, electromagnetic, and thermohydraulic modeling of superconducting devices. He is particularly interested in coupling finite element software such as COMSOL with electrical circuits using MATLAB/SIMULINK to accurately simulate superconducting device behavior. His academic research supports industrial approaches to integrating superconducting devices into the power grid.
