An assembly of coated conductors wound spirally on a copper core such as a CORC® wire is one of the most popular types of high current coated conductor cables. In such a cable, the current sharing by the copper core as well as the current sharing between coated conductors plays a key role for its quench protection. We conducted quench experiments using the simplest configuration, in which one...

The Conductor-On-Round-Core (CORC) is a promising design for obtaining cables made of second-generation high-temperature superconducting (HTS) wires. These cables are primarily intended for high-field magnets, but their small size and excellent current-carrying performance make them an attractive solution for AC power applications as well. The AC loss level is an important factor affecting the...
