  1. 486. DOCO-HTS-Roebel cables, a concept for higher currents
    Dr Wilfried Goldacker (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology)
    10/07/2017, 14:00
    Poster Presentation

    Roebel cables from HTS coated conductors are used in the first real application, in dipole insert magnets for particle accelerators, performed in a work package of the EU-project Eucard2 of CERN. Following-up the first sub-size dipole magnet demonstrator, future full-size magnets require cable designs with significantly enhanced operation currents for favorable magnet impedance, for...

  2. 315. Fabrication of long-length cable-in-conduit for superconducting magnets
    Jeff Breitschopf (Texas A&M University)

    Poster Presentation

    Cable-in-conduit conductor has particular benefits for superconducting magnets. It is rugged and provides cable-level stress management, it has internal flow of cryogen, flared ends can be formed readily and are self-stable once formed. Fabrication of long-length cable presents several challenges: the center tube must be formed and drawn using perforated strip; the cable must be pulled...

  3. 491. Feasibility Analysis, Technical Challenges, and Potential Solutions for Cross-country Multi-Terminal Superconducting DC Power Cables
    Mr Aws Al-Taie (Florida State University)
    10/07/2017, 14:00
    Poster Presentation

    High temperature superconducting (HTS) cables are expected to play an important role in modernizing the electric power grid. Significant increase in the fraction of renewable power generation is forcing the society to rethink the structure of electrical power grid in the US and elsewhere. Multi-gigawatt capacity long distance DC power transmission and interconnection of the three US power...

  4. 118. Finite element investigation of the mechanical behavior of Twisted Stacked-Tape Cables exposed to large Lorentz loads
    Ms Federica Pierro (Tufts University)
    10/07/2017, 14:00
    Poster Presentation

    The mechanical response of Twisted Stacked-Tape Cables (TSTC) experiencing large Lorentz loads generated during the operation of high-current, high-field magnets was investigated using finite element analysis. In previous work, the numerical analysis of an untwisted 40-tape TSTC under transverse compression was performed to identify cable configurations able to support the tapes against these...

  5. 228. Influence of Reaction Heat Treatment Conditions on Interstrand Contact Resistances of Nb3Sn Rutherford Cables
    Prof. Ted Collings (MSE, OSU)
    10/07/2017, 14:00
    Poster Presentation

    For the high luminosity upgrade of the large hadron collider the US accelerator research program is developing the quadrupole magnet MQXF wound with a 40 strand (N = 40) Nb3Sn Rutherford cable QXF. During the field ramping of accelerator magnets interstrand coupling currents flow through the crossover- and adjacent-strand contact resistances represented by Rc and Ra, respectively, and a...
