Ac losses of Nb3Sn

  • 1. Brookhaven National Lab., Upton, NY

Description

60-Hz losses were measured at 4.20K in a number of Nb3Sn rods and tapes produced by the bronze-diffusion process and in commercial Nb3Sn tapes. At low fields (less than or equal to 900 Oe), losses vary by more than two orders of magnitude among the different samples and are related to surface topography. At high fields (greater than or equal to 2 kOe) the variation among samples is much less, and depends mainly on the bulk critical current density J/sub c/. The losses are analyzed quantitatively in terms of the critical state model, including a surface current
