Abstract

PURPOSE:To reduce AC loss by winding a metal tape or a fine line with pictures around the external circumference of a superconducting wire and bundling and twisting a large number of wound wires to constitute a cable and putting this cable in a tube of stainless steel, etc., and then, heat-treating the tube to form an intermetallic compound superconductor. CONSTITUTION:A fine line 2 or a tape 21 is wound with appropriate pitches lp around the external circumference of a superconducting wire 1 made up of a material constituting Nb3Sn. The superconducting wires around which a fine line or a tape is wound are bundled in an appropriate number and twisted together. The cable is put in a tube made of stainless steel, etc., and then, molded in a prescribed dimension, and then, made into a cable-in-conduit type superconducting conductor through heat-treatment for formation of Nb3Sn, etc. The section between wires is electrically connected through the fine line or the tape by winding it with appropriate pitches around the external circumference of the superconducting wire as above. Thereby, the resistance between the wires increases with the result that AC loss due to a fluctuating magnetic field can be reduced, too.

(Prior Art) Four large-capacity superconductors with a rated current value of several thousand or more are required to have mechanical strength, stability at extremely low temperatures, and reduction of AC loss due to fluctuating magnetic fields. As shown in Fig. 5, a large number of superconducting strands 1 of Nb and Sn wires are twisted together to form a cable, the cable is housed in a tube 3 made of stainless steel, etc., and a refrigerant is supplied between the cable and the tube. Types of so-called cable-in-conduit conductors have been proposed.

With this configuration, since the four superconducting bodies are made of stainless steel, their mechanical strength is increased. In addition, regarding stability at extremely low temperatures, since the refrigerant enters between the wires, the contact area is wider than that of a monolith conductor or hollow conductor.
Improves stability. If the surface of a superconducting cable made of NbTi wire is coated with an organic insulator such as formal, no coupled current will flow between the cables even when subjected to a fluctuating magnetic field. Loss can be reduced.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) Such a cable-in-conduit conductor is made by twisting an appropriate number of superconducting wires into bundles such as 3 or 7 wires and twisting them together to form a cable. The strands of strands come into contact with other strands over a considerable length. Also,
After the cable is housed in a pipe made of stainless steel or similar material, an appropriate compaction is applied to the pipe to reduce the conductor area within the pipe to a predetermined ratio (usually 30% to (in the range of 80%),
Generally, superconducting strands deform slightly due to compression,
The contact area between wires increases. When the contact area between the strands increases, a coupling current is induced between the strands when a varying magnetic field is applied, increasing so-called AC loss. In particular, Nb
When producing 4 intermetallic compound superconductors such as 3Sn,
It requires a long heat treatment process at approximately 700°C, and at that time, the contact area makes stronger contact and the contact resistance decreases.
AC loss due to coupled current increases.
