Roadmap Model using OPM

We provide an Object-Process-Diagram (OPD) of the 3SC roadmap in the figure below. This diagram captures the main object of the roadmap (Superconducting Cable), including subsystem decompositions such as superconducting material wire and cooling system, and characterizes the Figures of Merits (FOMs) as well as the main processes (transporting) and state changes (electrical current from location A to location B without loss). Note that for room-temperature superconducting cables, the area enclosed by the red dashed-line square can be deleted from the OPD because it does not require the cooling medium.

An Object-Process Language (OPL) of the roadmap scope, which corresponds with the above OPD, is shown as follows:

Figures of Merit

The table below shows a list of FOMs by which superconducting cable can be assessed. The FOMs are divided into two groups, compatible with the OPD. Group A shows the FOMs for the superconducting material layer, and Group B shows the FOMs for the superconducting cable, the technology itself we have chosen. To quantify how well a technology performs and how valuable the technology is for the users, it is indispensable to focus on the superconducting material layer, which is critical at the lower level of the system, as well as the cable.
