ABSTRACTA tape-shaped wire with Y1 Ba2Cu3, O7-δ, core and Ag sheath was fabricated by a drawing-rolling method. The critical current density of the wire with 0.1 mm thickness and 6 mm width was in 2 the range of 2000 A/cm at 77 K in the absence of external magnetic field. Presence of 20 m Tesla magnetic field reduced the J value to 1/100.

The results of calculating the temperature dependences of the critical current density and critical magnetic field of thin inhomogeneous superconducting films are presented. Comparison of the results obtained for inhomogeneous films with the results of calculations for homogeneous ones showed that in both cases, the decrease in the critical magnetic field occurs according to the root law, and the critical current density changes according to a power law with a degree of 3/2 when approaching the critical temperature. Quantitatively, the critical current density for inhomogeneous films in the absence of an external magnetic field is lower than for homogeneous ones. In turn, the critical magnetic field of inhomogeneous films is much larger than the critical field of homogeneous films.

In an attempt to unveil the impact of the material law selection on the numerical modelling and analysis of the electromagnetic properties of superconducting coils, in this paper we compare the four most common approaches to the E-J power laws that serve as a modelling tool for the conductivity properties of the second generation of high-temperature superconducting (2G-HTS) tapes. The material laws considered are: (i) the celebrated E-J critical-state like-model, with constant critical current density and no dependence with the magnetic field; (ii) the classical Kim’s model which introduces an isotropic dependence with the environment magnetic field; (iii) a semi-empirical Kim-like model with an orthonormal field dependence, J c ( B ) , widely used for the modelling of HTS thin films; and (iv) the experimentally measured E–J material law for SuperPower Inc. 2G-HTS tapes, which account for the magneto-angular anisotropy of the in-field critical current density J c ( B ; θ ) , with a derived function similar to Kim’s model but taking into account some microstructural parameters, such as the electron mass anisotropy ratio ( γ ) of the superconducting layer. Particular attention has been given to those physical quantities which within a macroscopic approach can be measured by well-established experimental setups, such as the measurement of the critical current density for each of the turns of the superconducting coil, the resulting distribution of magnetic field, and the curve of hysteretic losses for different amplitudes of an applied alternating transport current at self-field conditions. We demonstrate that although all these superconducting material laws are equally valid from a purely qualitative perspective, the critical state-like model is incapable of predicting the local variation of the critical current density across each of the turns of the superconducting coil, or its non-homogeneous distribution along the width of the superconducting tape. However, depending on the physical quantity of interest and the error tolerance allowed between the numerical predictions and the experimental measurements, in this paper decision criteria are established for different regimes of the applied current, where the suitability of one or another model could be ensured, regardless of whether the actual magneto angular anisotropy properties of the superconducting tape are known.

Superconductor samples Mg(B1-2x(SiC)x)2 (x=0, 5%, 10%) are synthesized from nano SiC, Mg and amorphous boron powders by microwave direct synthesis in a short time. Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis indicates that the phases of the synthesis sample are MgB2 (major phase) and a small amount of MgO and Mg2Si. The main peaks of MgB2, (100), (101), (002) and (110) are shift to the higher diffraction angle position and the width of half height of the diffraction plane is broaden for the SiC doping Mg(B1-2x(SiC)x)2, which show that the B positions of MgB2 are partly substituted and the grains of MgB2 are fine. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) observation shows that the MgB2 grain size is very small and the sample is tightness (compact). The onset superconducting transition temperature of the Mg(B1-2x(SiC)x)2 (x=0, 5%, 10%) samples measured by magnetization measurement are about 37.6 K, 37.0 K, 36.8 K respectively. The critical current density Jc are calculated according to the Bean model from the magnetization hysteresis loop of the slab Mg(B1-2x(SiC)x)2 (x=0, 5%, 10%) samples. The critical current density Jc of nano SiC doping Mg(B1-2x(SiC)x)2 samples are greatly enhanced. In higher external magnetic field, the Jc of 10% SiC doped sample is the highest; in lower external magnetic field, the Jc of 5% SiC doped sample is the highest; while in the whole external magnetic field, the Jc of undoped sample is the lowest.

We have developed a method that allows, by a simple set of magnetic measurements, to study the texturing of the grains inside a BSCCO-Ag tape. Because the texture is anisotropic we define the angle ϑ L that identifies the mean grain misalignment angle with respect to the tape surface in longitudinal direction (i.e. rolling direction) and the angle ϑ T in transverse direction. The technique is based on the assumption that, because of the very high anisotropy of the critical current density in BSCCO superconducting compounds, the magnetic moment is essentially generated by the current circulating in the a-b planes of the BSCCO grains. The different magnetisation cycles, measured when the orientation of the magnetic field with respect to the tape surface is changed, depend only on the grain orientation inside the tape, which determines the effective magnetic field component normal to the a-b planes of the grains. Here we present the texture evolution of the BSCCO grains inside silver sheated multifilamentary tape starting from the initial steps of the mechanical deformation up to the final heating stage. The results obtained from the magnetic method are compared with those obtained with other methods, i.e. X-ray diffraction and critical current density anisotropy. Also results obtained on samples prepared in different way will be presented.
