Comparative measurements of ITER Nb3Sn strands between two laboratories
J. Lu, S. Hill, D. McGuire +6
ITER Nb3Sn strand quality verification tests require large quantities of precise measurements. Therefore regular cross-checking between testing laboratories is critically important…
Spatial periodic and homogeneous transverse stress loading on ITER TF Nb3Sn bronze and internal tin strand
A. Nijhuis, R. P. Pompe van Meerdervoort, W. A. J. Wessel
The transport properties of the superconducting Nb3Sn layers in the strands strongly depend on the strain state. Knowledge of the influence of axial strain, periodic bending and co…
Minimum quench power dissipation and current non-uniformity in ITER type NbTi cable-in-conduit conductor samples under DC conditions
G. Rolando, E. P. A. van Lanen, A. Nijhuis
The level of current non-uniformity in NbTi CICCs sections near the joints in combination with the magnet field profile needs attention in view of proper joint design. The strand J…
Optimisation of ITER Nb3Sn CICCs for coupling loss, transverse electromagnetic load and axial thermal contraction
A. Nijhuis, E. P. A. van Lanen, G. Rolando
The ITER cable-in-conduit conductors (CICCs) are built up from sub-cable bundles, wound in different stages, which are twisted to counter coupling loss caused by time-changing exte…
Transverse load optimisation in Nb3Sn CICC design; influence of cabling, void fraction and strand stiffness
A. Nijhuis, Y. Ilyin
We have developed a model that describes the transverse load degradation in Nb3Sn CICCs, based on strand and cable properties, and that predicts how such degradation can be prevent…
Coupling Current Control in Stabrite-Coated Nbti Rutherford Cables by Varying the Width of a Stainless Steel Core
M. D. Sumption, E. W. Collings, A. Nijhuis +1
AC loss measurements were made on a series of Rutherford cables wound from stabrite-coated NbTi/Cu multifilamentary strand, from the results of which interstrand contact resistance…
