    摘要: A method and apparatus employs Hall probes for contactless, longitudinal and transversal homogeneity examination of a critical current density j.sub.c in a superconductor tape that is cooled to below a transition temperature T.sub.c. The cooled superconductor tape is pulled through an external, locally limited magnetic field that has a constant gradient and a fixed magnetic field axis. The magnetic field generated by a screening current induced in a region of the superconductor tape penetrated by the external magnetic field is scanned using a first Hall probe at a distance of a few tenths of millimeters to the superconductor tape. The external magnetic field outside of a field range of the induced persistent currents is measured with a second Hall probe. A compensated difference between the first and second Hall probe signals is used as a qualitative measure for a critical current density j.sub.c (x) and its longitudinal homogeneity which varies locally with respect to a longitudinal axis of the superconductor tape. The compensated difference is formed by adjusting a test difference between the two Hall probe signals to zero as a result of measuring the external magnetic field by both Hall probes in a dummy measurement conducted without the superconductor tape. A transverse homogeneity with a linear Hall probe array that is positioned crosswise to the longitudinal axis of the superconductor tape and extends broadside over the superconductor tape is measured after all Hall probes in the array have first been adjusted to zero with a signal from the second probe. Quantitative locally critical current densities are specified from the Hall probe signals by a resistive calibration obtained from a current-voltage measurement.

    摘要: The present invention provides a method for measuring the intragranular andntergranular critical current of a granular superconductive material, comprising the steps of: 1) conducting a substantially rectangular electronic pulse through the material so as to conduct a current through the material such that when the intergranular critical current of the material is exceeded, any grains present in the material remain in a superconducting state when the current level is below the intragranular critical current; 2) measuring the current through the material while conducting the pulse; 3) measuring a voltage difference across the material while conducting the pulse; 4) determining the intergranular critical current through the material by discerning a non-zero voltage difference across the material and contemporaneously measuring the current; and 5) determining the intragranular critical current through the material by varying the current to discern a current level at which the electrical resistance of the material increases to that of the non-superconducting state as the grains of the material transition from the superconducting to a non-superconducting state. This method may also be used to determine the critical current of a homogeneous superconductive material.

    摘要: The quench of the superconducting coil is desired to be detected early while suppressing the influences of the noise generated in charge and discharge of the superconducting coil. A superconducting coil quench detection apparatus detects the balance voltage of a bridge circuit formed by the superconducting coil and a resistor to output it as a quench detection signal for detecting the quench thereof. A signal indicating the hold period where the energy accumulated in the superconducting coil is held is generated. A signal included in the hold period is extracted from the quench detection signal. The quench of the superconducting coil is detected based on the extracted signal.

A compressor having a hollow interior and a plunger for selectively reducing the free space area for distribution of the magnetic flux therein are formed of superconductor material. Analytical relationships, based upon the critical state model, Maxwell's equations and geometrical relationships define transport critical current density and flux penetration depth in terms of the initial trapped magnetic flux density and the ratio between initial and final magnetic flux densities whereby data may be reliably determined by means of the simple test apparatus for evaluating the current density and flux penetration depth.

    摘要: A method of measuring superconducting critical current in persistent mode using superconducting closed loops which allow the persistent current to flow without any joints. This persistent critical current is different than traditional resistive critical current that is the upper limit of the superconducting current carrying capacity, and provides the information about the range of critical current in persistent mode that is more close to applications in MRI, SMES, and Maglev operations. The measurement can be used as a quality control method in the manufacturing process and a piece of crucial information to magnet manufacturers for the design and fabrication of magnet. The superconducting materials include the second generation superconducting wires (coated conductors) based on Rare Earth (RE) Barium Copper Oxide superconducting material (REBa2Cu3O6+x, REBCO), or any other type of superconducting wires that can be manufactured in the form of tape.

    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: The transverse critical-current uniformity in a superconducting tape was determined using a magnetic knife apparatus. A critical current Ic distribution and transverse critical current density Jc distribution in YBCO coated conductors was measured nondestructively with high resolution using a magnetic knife apparatus. The method utilizes the strong depression of Jc in applied magnetic fields. A narrow region of low, including zero, magnetic field in a surrounding higher field is moved transversely across a sample of coated conductor. This reveals the critical current density distribution. A Fourier series inversion process was used to determine the transverse Jc distribution in the sample.
