Study of Stability of High-Current Superconducting Current- Carrying Element for Magnets of Accelerators
Protvino, 2008. – p. 14 , figs. 10, tables: 3, refs.: 15.


Development of stable current-carrying element, having low cable losses, is necessary for superconducting magnets with a field up to 6 Ò and field ramp rate more 1 T/s. As a current-carrying element it is possible to use superconducting cable Rutherford type with a various resistive covering of wires. Numerical and experimental studies of the minimum quench energy were carried out for such types of cable. A method of numerical calculation is developed and experimental installation for study of minimum quench energy of a superconducting cable is created. Contact resistances between strands of cable with a various resistive coating of strands are measured. Carried out researches have shown that the superconducting cable with a resistive covering of wires possesses sufficient stability for operation in fast-cycling magnets.
