Definitions

  • the present invention relates to methods of manufacturing superconducting bodies and in particular to methods of making hollow stabilized superconducting bodies.
  • Superconducting bodies lose their electrical resistivity when they are brought to a sufficiently low temperature, and retain this property of zero electrical resistance even when carrying heavy electrical currents.
  • These bodies are therefore frequently used in the form of wires, cables or strips and shaped to form solenoids designed to generate high-strength magnetic fields which, because of their superconducting properties, can carry very heavy electrical currents without co'nsuming any power provided that appropriate cooling conditions are maintained.
  • FIG. 3 illustrates, in cross section, a composite body during one step of the method
  • FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view, to a greatly distorted scale, of a core or mandrel element
  • FIG. 8 is a crosssectional view of an embodiment of a final product resulting from the method.
