Development of 12 T-10 kA A1-stabilized Nb/sub 3/Sn conductor for TMC-II

Conference · · IEEE Trans. Magn.; (United States)
OSTI ID:6340642

The Al-stabilized Nb/sub 3/Sn strand has been successfully fabricated and J /SUB c/ value of 400 A/mm/sup 2/ at 12 T is obtained on condition that Nb/sub 3/Sn is reacted at 625/sup 0/C for 200 hr. Overall residual resistivity of this strand is lowered to 77% of that of the Custabilized Nb/sub 3/Sn strand (TMC-I) /SUP 1.2/ at 12 T by Alstabilizer. The 12 T-10 kA cable-in-conduit conductor, fabricated by this strands, is charged up to 20 kA at 8.7 T without appearance of normal zone. From these experimental results, this conductor satisfies almost the specification of the present target conductor (TMC-II)/sup 3/.
