Title: Simulation of multiple stability regions in an internally cooled superconducting conductor with the computer code SSICC

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/6618087· OSTI ID:6618087

The computer code SSICC (Safety and Stability of Internally Cooled Conductors) has successfully simulated the multiple stability regions observed experimentally by Lue, Miller, and Dresner of Oak Ridge National Laboratory. The simulation requires asymmetrical boundary conditions and a heating pulse duration short compared to the time for reflection of the transient pressure wave back into the heated region of the conductor.
