Development of an ${rm MgB}_{2}$ Coil Wound With a Parallel Conductor Composed of Two Tapes With Insulation

摘要

The ${rm MgB}_{2}$ coil wound with a parallel conductor composed of two ${rm MgB}_{2}$ tapes with insulation has been developed. The tape is obtained by the rolling process from the round wire which is fabricated by in-situ method. The performances of tapes, such as critical current density and ac losses, are higher than that of round wires in case that the transverse magnetic fields are applied to the tape in direction of the parallel to the flat face of the tape. We proposed as a candidate of applying the tape to a conductor with large current capacity that the parallel conductor is composed of insulated tapes. We fabricated a tape with aspect ratio of two from a round wire with diameter of 0.8 mm as a strand for the conductor. The coil is composed of two coils that are jointed each other in series. At the joint, two strands are transposed to be identical the inductances of two strands. The inner and outer diameters of the coil are 65 mm and 107 mm, respectively. The length of the coil is 53 mm. The total turn number is 540 turn. The magnetic flux density at the center in the coil is 1.31 T when the transport current is 200 A. In this paper, the design and the test results of the ${rm MgB}_{2}$ coil wound with the conductor are shown and the critical current properties and ac loss properties of the coil are discussed
