Superconducting Windings.

Abstract

The report summarizes the results of an approximately 20 man month experimental and theoretical effort which has culminated with the construction of a mathematical model for the calculation or estimation of losses in multifilament superconductors. The model treats the practical case of ramped or transient magnetic fields transverse to conductor elements of circular or rectangular cross section and carrying fixed or changing transport currents which may or may not be related to field changes. The model, which has not been completely verified experimentally and in many instances points the way for further work, is presented complete with background, justification, qualifications, and example calculations. Experimental accomplishments, mainly calorimetric loss measurements, and theoretical accomplishments are summarized in part through a presentation of abstracts with references to relevant publications or to as yet unpublished results some of which are presented in the appendices.
