The critical energy characteristics of cooled composite superconductors is analytically predicted based on the one-dimensional hyperbolic heat conduction model. The temperature dependence of the Ohmic heat generation, the finite speed of heat transfer, and the finite duration and finite length of the thermal disturbances are taken into account in the present model. The critical energies are calculated using a model based on the analytical solution of the hyperbolic heat conduction equation by the Laplace transformation method. The computational model results show that the critical energy depends on the relaxation time and disturbance duration. It is found that the hyperbolic conduction model predicts a lower-critical energy as compared to the predictions of the parabolic heat conduction model.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations鈥揷itations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
