It is known that current sharing effects of the stabilizer are limited in cryocooling conditions being different from poolboiling. Therefore we have studied stability under it, focusing on minimum quench energy (MQE) of Nb 3 Sn superconductors under various conditions of the applied magnetic field, temperature, and the transport current, for various volume fractions and configurations of Cu stabilizer. From the experimental results, the larger the external Cu volume fraction, the higher the MQE was obtained. All MQE data were summarized by only one line in characteristics of normalized MQE and normalized ( c2 ). The obtained MQE behavior was to be characterized by only one empirical equation. It is thought that the obtained formula is useful for a standard of designing the Nb 3 Sn superconductor and its coil under cryocooled condition.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations 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.
