Improvement of Ic degradation of HTS Conductor (FAIR Conductor) and FAIR Coil Structure for Fusion Device

Toshiyuki Mito et al.

Summary: REBCO tapes and high-purity aluminum sheets are alternately laminated to create a high-temperature superconducting (HTS) conductor for nuclear fusion experimental devices. The conductor is twisted at the end of the manufacturing process to ensure uniform current distribution and mechanical characteristics. Prototype conductors showed degradation in I-c and buckling due to local stress concentration, but improvements in manufacturing methods were able to suppress I-c degradation to 20% or less.
