Cold dielectric superconducting cable screen connection arrangement for high voltage electric current, has superconducting connection cable with cryogenic sheath, covering connecting superconductor, joined to cryostat by Johnston connection

摘要

The arrangement has a superconducting connection cable (30), for connecting screens, with a cryogenic sheath (34) surrounding a connecting superconductor (32). The superconductor ends (46) are connected to the screens by connection units (36). The sheath is connected to a cryostat (20), containing cryogenic liquid, by a Johnston connection (58). The superconductor has a mechanical support wound by layers of superconducting tapes.
