An oxide superconducting stranded wire having inter-strand insulation and high critical current is provided. A wire including an oxide superconducting material and a matrix covering the material and consisting essentially of silver or a silver alloy is coated with a paint containing, as a main component, an organometallic polymer such as a silicone polymer or aluminum primary phosphorus in a paint reservoir, and the paint is baked in a baking furnace via a drying furnace. A plurality of such wires with the baked paint are twined into a stranded wire, which is then heated up to a temperature necessary for sintering the oxide superconducting material. The stranded wire thus obtained through the step of sintering may have high critical current. A heat-resisting insulating coating layer may be formed by baking the paint.

The diameter of a first metal tube charged with raw material powder is reduced for obtaining an elementary wire. A plurality of such elementary wires are charged into a second metal tube, which in turn is reduced in diameter for obtaining a round first wire having a plurality of first filaments. The first wire is uniaxially compressed thereby obtaining a tape-like second wire having a plurality of second filaments. The second wire is heat treated thereby obtaining an oxide superconducting wire including a plurality of superconductor filaments. The maximum grain size of the raw material powder is smaller than the minor diameter of the first or second filaments.

In order to provide a flexible oxide superconducting cable conductor which is reduced in ac loss, tape-shaped multifilamentary superconducting wires covered with a stabilizing metal are spirally wound on a flexible former. Each of the multifilamentary superconducting wires has a plurality of filaments. The filament contains an oxide superconductor. The superconducting wires are preferably wound on the former at a bending strain of not more than 0.3 %. In winding on the former, a prescribed number of tape-shaped multifilamentary superconducting wires are wound on a core member in a side-by-side manner, to form a first layer. Then, an insulating layer is provided on the first layer. This insulating layer can be formed by an insulating tape. A prescribed number of tape-shaped superconducting multifilamentary wires are wound on the insulating layer in a side-by-side manner, to form a second layer. The insulating layer is adapted to reduce ac loss of the conductors. When the former is made of a metal, it is more preferable to provide an insulating layer between the former and the multifilamentary superconducting wires.

Disclosed herein is a method which enables permanent current junction of a tape-type oxide superconducting wire and suppresses reduction of its critical current. An end portion of a tape-type wire (10) to be joined is removed to expose oxide superconductor filaments. Another tape-type wire (10') to be joined with the wire (10) is processed in a similar manner. The tape-type wires (10, 10') are so superposed that the surfaces exposing the filaments face with each other, and the superposed portions are pressed in a direction perpendicular to principal surfaces of the tapes and heat treated at a temperature of 800.degree. to 900.degree. C., to be completely joined with each other.
摘要:
A method of measuring the critical current value of a superconducting wire comprises the step of measuring first to mth (m denotes an integer of at least 2) current values (I1, I2, . . . , Im) and first to mth voltage values (V1, V2, . . . , Vm) corresponding to the respective ones of the first to mth current values. The first current value I1 and the first voltage value V1 are measured by retaining the current fed from a constant current source to the superconducting wire in a state set to a first set value I1a for a constant time and thereafter measuring the current flowing through the superconducting wire and a voltage generated in the superconducting wire. The kth (k denotes an integer satisfying 2≦k≦m) current value Ik and the kth voltage value Vk are measured by retaining the current fed from the constant current source to the superconducting wire in a state set to a kth set value Ika higher than a (k−1)th set value for the constant time and thereafter measuring the current flowing through the superconducting wire and the voltage generated in the superconducting wire. Thus, a correct critical current value can be measured.
摘要:
Provided is a superconducting cable having a structure such that cable cores, each having a superconducting layer, are housed in a thermal insulation pipe and the superconducting layer of each cable core has portions having different critical current values. When an excessive current flows in the superconducting layer in case of a short-circuit failure, the current exceeds the critical current value of the portion having a smaller critical current value first, which results in damage to the portion, suppressing the occurrence of damage to the other normal portion. A superconducting cable line using this superconducting cable and a splitter for accommodating the cable cores therein is also provided.
