26、 for measuring the AC losses of Cu/Nb-Ti composite superconducting wires in transverse time-varying magnetic fields. These represent initial steps in standardization of methods for measuring the various contributions to AC loss in transverse fields, the most frequently encountered configuration. It
27、was decided to split the initial proposal mentioned above into two documents covering two standard methods. One of them describes the magnetometer method for hysteresis loss and low frequency (or sweep rate) total AC loss measurement in a slowly varying magnetic field, and the other describes the pi
28、ckup coil method for total AC loss measurement in higher frequency (or sweep rate) magnetic fields. The frequency range is 0 Hz 0,06 Hz for the magnetometer method and 0,005 Hz 60 Hz for the pickup-coil method. The overlap between 0,005 Hz and 0,06 Hz is a complementary frequency range for the two m
29、ethods. This standard deals with the magnetometer method. BS EN 61788-13:2012 6 61788-13 IEC:2012 SUPERCONDUCTIVITY Part 13: AC loss measurements Magnetometer methods for hysteresis loss in superconducting multifilamentary composites 1 Scope This part of IEC 61788 describes considerations for the me
30、asurement of hysteretic loss in Cu/Nb-Ti multifilamentary composites using DC- or low-ramp-rate magnetometry. This international standard specifies a method of the measurement of hysteretic loss in multifilamentary Cu/Nb-Ti composite conductors. Measurements are assumed to be on round wires with tem
31、peratures at or near 4,2 K. DC or low-ramp-rate magnetometry will be performed using either a superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID magnetometer, See Annex A.) or a vibrating-sample magnetometer (VSM). In case differences between the calibrated magnetometer results are noted, the VSM re
32、sults, extrapolated to zero ramp rate, will be taken as definitive. Extension to the measurement of superconductors in general is given in Annex B. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its applicati

IEC 60050 (all parts), International Electrotechnical Vocabulary (available at 5 Lp. 4.6 Specimen orientation and demagnetization effect
34、s Loss measurements shall be made on strand specimens in a transverse magnetic field. For the fully penetrated fine filaments of a multifilamentary Cu/Nb-Ti strand, demagnetization is negligible. By the same token, it is negligible for round-, flat-, or square-cross-sectioned bundles of such strands
35、. However, for the sake of completeness in reporting the results, the specimen configuration shall be reported. 4.7 Normalization volume It may be desirable to report hysteretic loss in terms of the superconductor volume. To pursue this route, it is necessary to invoke a standard procedure for deter
36、mining the matrix (Cu)/superconductor volume ratio (see IEC 61788-5). For the purposes of this standard, these steps are eliminated, and AC loss is to be reported in terms of total composite volume. Volume should be measured with a relative combined standard uncertainty not to exceed 0,5 %. 4.8 Mode
37、 of field cycling or sweeping The applied field may be changed point-by-point over the field cycle starting and ending at Hmax.SQUID magnetometry is restricted to this mode of field change, and it is optional for the VSM to be operated in point-by-point mode. The VSM may also be operated semicontinu
38、ously, the M-H loop being constructed from 200 or so (M,H) data-pairs. BS EN 61788-13:2012 10 61788-13 IEC:2012 5 The VSM method of measurement 5.1 General For a full description of the application of VSM technique, the paper by Collings et al. 11) is recommended. 5.2 VSM measurement principle The b
39、asic principle of the Foner 2 VSM is as follows. The specimen to be measured is located in a uniform magnetic field, which causes it to become magnetized. The specimen is mechanically oscillated near a set of pickup coils. The oscillating magnetic moment causes an oscillation in the magnetic field l
40、inking the pickup coils, thereby inducing an AC voltage which is then detected and converted into a magnetic moment value by electronic circuitry. The magnetometer is a “substitution“ rather than “absolute“ device and its output signal requires calibration against a reference. Custom-made (hand-made
41、) VSMs do exist, but increasingly, commercial versions of this machine are used. In general, they share the following characteristics. The specimen to be measured is typically mounted on a vertical rod which vibrates longitudinally (vertically) with a position amplitude of about 1 mm and at a suitab
42、ly low frequency. The magnetic field may be supplied by either a horizontally mounted iron-core electromagnet (EM) or a vertically mounted superconducting solenoid (SCS) the conventional attitudes in each case causing the vibration direction of the sample to be perpendicular or parallel, respectivel
43、y, to the field direction. The pickup coils are appropriately located and connected in pairs such that any external field oscillations (magnetic noise) are cancelled and only the specimen-generated field oscillations are detected. A typical experimental setup of VSM measurement is given in Figure 1.
44、 The loss is determined from the numerically integrated area of the full M-H loop. The specimen is positioned at the “sweet spot“, a small region of the pickup coil space within which the detected signal changes only slightly with variation of vertical or horizontal positioning of the specimen. Usin
45、g a small calibrating specimen of, for example Ni, the specimen space is to be explored and the sweet spot determined as the volume within which the response does not change more than 2 %. Suppose Z to be the vertical direction, Y the direction along the magnet-pole axis, and X the direction normal
46、to the magnet-pole axis, then the center of the sweet spot is located by a procedure known as “saddling“, viz seeking the maximum signal along Z combined with the maximum along X and the minimum along Y. 5.3 VSM specimen preparation The size of the sweet spot in the typical VSM restricts specimen vo
47、lume to less than about 30 mm3. For the VSM measurement of Cu/Nb-Ti multifilamentary composite wires, it is permissible to use one of three alternative specimen configurations as shown in Figure 2. a) Short straight specimen: This consists of one or more straight pieces of strand (the size of the bu
48、ndle depending on the signal strength required) up to about 1 cm in length. The ends of the strand pieces are to be finely ground flat (see for example 1). b) Multiturn coil: If long lengths of fine wire are to be measured, they may be wound for measurement into a multiturn coil (see for example 3).
49、 For EM-VSM measurement, the coil may be oval in shape and mounted with its long axis vertically (parallel to the vibration axis). The plane of the coil will be normal to the field direction. For SCS-VSM measurement, the multiturn coil should be round and mounted with its plane perpendicular to the vibration axis. _ 1)Numbers in square brackets refer to the Bibliography.
