OSTI ID:5754557
Recently there have been some attempts to construct 10-T dipole magnets using Nb/sub 3/Sn conductors. Nb/sub 3/Sn multifilamentary wires with very high current densities J/sub c/ (above 1000 A/mm/sup 2/ at 10 T (excluding Cu)) are commercially available. However, few studies have been made of the electromagnetic stability of these Nb/sub 3/Sn wires, and it is not clear how much copper is required for stabilization of the conductor for these magnets. This paper investigated the influence of the amount of stabilizing copper in a Nb/sub 3/Sn conductor on the quench energies and quench propagation velocities of Nb/sub 3/Sn multifilamentary wires at high magnetic fields. 6 figures.
