【 摘 要 】

In this work, an experimental and theoretical study of the transport and magnetization AC losses of a single layer ReBCO cable is presented. Examined cable consisted of five coated conductor tapes wound in parallel helically on the round core with 40 mm pitch and six full transposition resulting in the 24 cm total cable length. Transport currents up to 600 A amplitude with frequencies 36 Hz and 72 Hz were used in the transport loss measurement. AC fields up to 50 mT were applied during the magnetization loss measurement at 36 Hz and 72 Hz, respectively. Very good agreement between the experimental results and the simulations for magnetization loss was achieved. However, the experimental results for transport loss are markedly greater than the prediction reached from simulation. Nevertheless, they are lower than the transport AC loss theoretically assumed for a straight superconducting tape with the identical critical current.
