Optimized HTS current leads
The problem of optimizing HTS current leads by varying their cross-section along the length is investigated both experimentally and numerically at 500 A current level. Bi-2223-based HTS multi-filament composite tapes were used with two types of matrices: pure Ag and (Ag+1 at.% Au) alloy. The warm en...

Zusammenfassung: | The problem of optimizing HTS current leads by varying their cross-section along the length is investigated both experimentally and numerically at 500 A current level. Bi-2223-based HTS multi-filament composite tapes were used with two types of matrices: pure Ag and (Ag+1 at.% Au) alloy. The warm ends of the HTS parts of the current leads were cooled with liquid nitrogen. Very low evaporation rates in the case of Au-doped matrix and rather long time constants to reach thermal equilibrium were observed. |
