We review progress in the design of high field superconducting cable-in-conduit conductors
(CICCs) for fusion applications, with special attention to the results of recent key …

The differences in thermal contraction of the composite materials in a cable in conduit
conductor (CICC) for the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER), in …

The ITER magnets experiencing high magnetic field (> 11T), the central solenoid (CS) and
the toroidal field (TF) system, will make use of complex conductors using Nb3Sn as …

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 …

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

Four \rmNb_3\rmSn conductor lengths were prepared according to the ITER TF conductor
design and assembled into two SULTAN samples. The four lengths are not fully identical …

The critical current density (J c) of Nb 3 Sn strand has been significantly improved over the
last several years. For most magnet applications, high J c internal tin has displaced bronze …

A new generation of ITER TF conductor samples has been assembled and tested in
SULTAN in 2007 following a common procedure agreed among the ITER parties. The test …

The strong strain sensitivity of the critical properties of Nb 3 Sn is well established. However,
the roles played by both the reversible strain sensitivity and the susceptibility to brittle …

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 …
