26、iagnostic equipment, NMR spectrometers, single crystal growth devices, SMES, particle accelerators such as Tevatron, HERA, RHIC and LHC, experimental test instruments for nuclear fusion reactors, such as ToreSupra, TRIAM, LHD, EAST, KSTAR, W7-X, JT-60SA and ITER, etc., and of advanced superconductin

27、g devices in the near future in practical uses such as magnetic levitated trains, superconducting fault current limiters, superconducting transformers, etc. The major functions of current leads are to power high currents into superconducting devices and to minimize the overall heat load, including h

28、eat leakage from room temperature to cryogenic temperature and Joule heating through current leads. For this purpose, current leads are dramatically effective for lowering the overall heat load to use the high temperature superconducting component as a part of the current leads. On the other hand, t

29、he current lead technologies applied to superconducting devices depend on each application, as well as on the manufacturers experience and accumulated know-how. Due to their use as component parts, it is difficult to judge the compatibility, flexibility between devices, convenience, overall economic

30、al efficiency, etc of current leads. This may impede progress in the growth and development of superconducting equipment technology and its application to commercial activities, which is a cause for concern. Consequently, it is judged industrially effective to clarify the definition of current leads

41、ogenic temperature of the powered equipment. These components are called current leads. Since they operate in a gradient of temperature and they transport current into the cryogenic environment, they are one of the major sources of a heat leakage into the cryostat. The current leads can be classifie

42、d into two types: normal conducting current leads, made entirely from normal conducting section. These are usually joined at their cold end to a superconducting (SC) bus or link leading to the device being powered; high temperature superconducting (HTS) current leads, which incorporate a section of

43、HTS material. A normal conducting section is necessary to conduct the current from room temperature to the warm end of the HTS section. The latter must be maintained at a sufficiently low temperature to ensure that it remains superconducting for the maximum rated current of the lead. The cold end of

44、 the HTS section is usually joined to the device by a SC bus. Depending on the cooling method, the leads can be either non-gas-cooled or gas-cooled. Both types of cooling methods can be used if the lead is subdivided into two, hydraulically separated, sections. If the device being powered uses low t

45、emperature superconducting (LTS) material, the link to the lead is usually via LTS cables or wires. Optimized, self-cooled normal conducting current leads conduct into the helium bath 1,1 W/kA 11)to 1,2 W/kA 2. This value can be reduced substantially by using HTS material.

The design of a current lead is uniquely linked to the system within which it has to operate

47、. The choice of materials, the cooling method, the geometry, the electrical characteristics and the admissible cryogenic consumptions are strongly influenced by boundary conditions imposed by the whole system. System requirements are electrical, cryogenic, and mechanical, and include the following:

48、maximum operating current, operation mode, current ramp rate, insulation voltage, circuit time constant, ambient magnetic fields; cryogen availability, cryogen inlet/outlet temperature and pressure, admissible heat loads, time duration when the lead shall operate safely in case of failure of cryogen

49、 supply; the volume available for integration, including mechanical support, vacuum insulation, and connection to the hydraulic and electrical interfaces. NOTE 1 The heat leakage for self-cooled current leads should make use of 1,2 W/kA in the case of large current capacities. NOTE 2 Typical current leads based on these principles are shown in Annex B. 5 Characteristic test items The following clauses describe the qualification tests that should be perf
