Large Predicted Self-Field Critical Current Enhancements In Superconducting Strips Using Magnetic Screens

Abstract: A transport current distribution over a wide superconducting sheet is shown to strongly change in the presence of bulk magnetic screens of a soft magnet with a high permeability. Depending on the geometry, the effect may drastically suppress or protect the Meissner state of the sheet through the enhancement or suppression of the edge barrier critical current. The total transport current in the magnetically screened Meissner state is expected to compete with the critical current of the flux-filled sheet only fo… Show more

“…As was recently predicted special curved magnetic and superconducting surroundings may even significantly enhance the current-carrying capability of strips and weak links in the fluxfree Meissner state [5][6][7] as well as in the flux-filled critical state [8,9]. Experimentally, critical current enhancements [10,11] and ac losses reduction [12][13][14] were observed recently in magnetically shielded strips and filaments.…”

“…AC losses in superconductor strips caused by the latter type of fields are anticipated to greatly decrease when the strips are exposed to suitably designed magnetic environments [2,3]. Exact analytic representations of sheet current distributions in superconductor strips located between two highpermeability magnets occupying infinite half-spaces were derived before [1,2]; these configurations allowed to find the respective current distributions for various other topologically open shielding geometries by application of the method of conformal mapping. Utilization of the latter tool for analyzing sheet current distributions and AC losses in the presence of topologically closed magnetic environments of practical interest requires corresponding reference results.…”
