In Part 2 of these articles, an extensive analysis of pinning-force curves and raw scaling data
was used to derive the Extrapolative Scaling Expression (ESE). This is a parameterization of …

We present the latest results of the novel model for transverse electromagnetic load
optimization (TEMLOP) especially developed for the ITER type of cable-in-conduit …

We have measured the critical current (I c) of a high current density Nb 3 Sn strand
subjected to spatial periodic bending, periodic contact stress and uniaxial strain. The strand …

The strain irreversibility cliff (SIC), marking the abrupt change of the intrinsic irreversible
strain limit ε irr, 0 as a function of heat-treatment (HT) temperature θ in Nb 3 Sn …

Using a co-wound and insulated NbTi low temperature superconducting (LTS) wire to detect
quench in coils wound with high temperature superconducting (HTS) tapes has recently …

This paper presents comprehensive measurements on three advanced ITER internal-tin Nb
3 Sn strands manufactured by Oxford Superconducting Technology (OST), Outokumpu …

Abstract Performance degradation of Nb 3 Sn cable-in-conduit-conductors (CICCs) is a
critical issue in large-scale magnet design such as in the International Thermonuclear …

The ITER cable-in-conduit conductors (CICCs) are built up from sub-cable bundles, wound
in different stages, which are twisted to counter coupling loss caused by time-changing …

This paper presents in detail recent pure bending strain investigations of ITER Nb 3 Sn wires
including a pure bending device development, bending effects on the critical currents and …

The central solenoid model coil (CSMC) project of China fusion engineering test reactor
(CFETR) began in 2014 and the purpose is to develop and verify the manufacture …
