Biography
Dr. Asef Ghabeli holds a PhD in Electrical and Electronics Engineering from the Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava, Slovakia. He specializes in application of high-temperature superconductivity, with particular expertise in the modelling, design and optimization of superconducting devices.
Dr. Ghabeli’s research focuses on the development of simulation tools for HTS flux pumps, transformers, electrical machines, magnetic bearings, and magnets for fusion applications. He developed the first 3D numerical model of a dynamo-type HTS flux pump and has played a key role in improving the understanding of the device's operation. His contributions have supported major developments, including the electromagnetic design of a 15 MVA HTS transformer, the analysis of superconducting magnetic bearings, and screening current simulations for fusion magnets.
Dr. Ghabeli is a regular reviewer for journals such as Superconductor Science and Technology alnd IEEE Transactions on Applied Superconductivity. Furthermore, he served as a session chair at the international conferences EUCAS 2023 and EUCAS 2025. Dr. Ghabeli also serves as technical editor for 2025 Magnet Technology conference (MT29).
