Heat transfer through cable insulation of Nb-Ti superconducting magnets operating in He II

Pier Paolo Granieri

The operation of Nb–Ti superconducting magnets in He II relies on superfluidity to overcome the severe thermal barrier represented by the cable electrical insulation. In wrapped cable insulations, like those used for the main magnets of the Large Hadron Co ...

Effect of transverse load on the critical current of a coated conductor Roebel cable

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Davide Uglietti, Rainer Wesche

Roebel cables are one possible option for use in the manufacture of high current conductors for various technical applications. In this work the behaviour of critical current under transverse loads up to 90 MPa was studied in coated conductor Roebel cables ...

Irreversible Degradation in Nb3Sn Cable in Conduit Conductors

Ciro Calzolaio

One of the biggest goals for the international thermonuclear experimental reactor (ITER) is the steady state operation. For this reason all its coils will be superconducting and Nb3Sn material is used for both the toroidal field (TF) and the central soleno ...

Examination of Nb3Sn Conductors for ITER Central Solenoids

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Kamil Sedlák, Boris Stepanov

The performance of two Nb3Sn conductors for the ITER central solenoids was tested. The current sharing temperatures (T-cs) were measured over 17 050 electromagnetic cycles, including four thermal cycles between 4.2 K and room temperature. T-cs declined alm ...

Transverse heat transfer coefficient in the dual channel ITER TF CICCs Part I: Analysis of steady state temperature profiles resulting from annular heating

Two ITER IF dual channel Cable-in-Conduit Conductors (CICCs) have been tested in the SULTAN test facility. The samples were heated either by foil heaters mounted on the outside of the conductor jacket or by induced AC losses. The steady-state temperature r ...

Determining Control Strategies for Damage Tolerance of an Active Tensegrity Structure

Ian Smith, Nizar Bel Hadj Ali, Sinan Korkmaz

Tensegrity structures are spatial, reticulate and lightweight systems composed of struts and cables. Stability is provided by a self-stress state between tensioned and compressed elements. Tensegrities have received interest among scientists and engineers ...

Dependence of the ac loss on the aspect ratio in a cable in conduit conductor

Pierluigi Bruzzone

The coupling current loss in rectangular superconducting cables is strictly dependent on their aspect ratio, which has an impact on the area linked by the field variation and consequently on the currents induced between strands. The relation between the ac ...

Successful performances of the EU-AltTF sample, a large size Nb3Sn cable-in-conduit conductor with rectangular geometry

Pierluigi Bruzzone

One of the design features which yet offers interesting margins for performance optimization of cable-in-conduit conductors (CICCs), is their geometry. For relatively small size Nb3Sn CICCs, operating at high electromagnetic pressure, such as those for the ...
