22、BHTSC) have significant potential for a variety of engineering applications, such as magnetic bearings, flywheel energy storage systems, load transports, levitation, and trapped flux density magnets. Large grain superconductors have already been brought to market worldwide. For industrial applicatio
23、ns of bulk superconductors, there are two important material properties. One is the magnetic levitation force, which determines the tolerable weight supported by a bulk superconductor. The other is the trapped flux density, which determines the maximum field that a bulk superconductor can generate.
24、The users of bulk superconductors must know these values for the design of their devices. However, these values are strongly dependent on the testing method, and therefore it is critically important to set up an international standard for the determination of these values both for manufacturers and
25、industrial users. The test method covered in this standard is based on the VAMAS (Versailles Project on Advanced Materials and Standards) pre-standardization work on the properties of bulk high temperature superconductors.

26、 (c) BSI 5 EN 61788-9:2005 SUPERCONDUCTIVITY Part 9: Measurements for bulk high temperature superconductors Trapped flux density of large grain oxide superconductors 1 Scope This part of IEC 61788 specifies a test method for the determination of the trapped field (trapped flux density) of bulk high
27、temperature superconductors. This International Standard is applicable to large grain bulk oxide superconductors that have well defined shapes such as round discs, rectangular, and hexagonal pellets. The trapped flux density can be assessed at temperatures from 4,2 K to 90 K. For the purpose of stan
28、dardization, the trapped flux density will be reported for liquid nitrogen temperature. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition o

31、 measured, which is strongly affected by the sample geometry or the demagnetizing effect (see Clause A.2). Thus the total flux density, which is the integration of all the field components, may also be regarded as the materials property to stand for the trapped flux density (see Clause A.1). 4 Princ
32、iple Superconductors that exhibit flux pinning are capable of trapping magnetic fields, as shown in Figure 1. Here the internal magnetic flux density rotation ( B ) in the BHTSC is proportional to the critical current density (Jc), as expressed by the following equation: c0JB = Licensed Copy: Wang B

The maximum value of the trapped flux density in the z component (Bz,max) in an infinite
34、cylinder (2 R in diameter) is given by the following equation: RJBzc0max,= In practical samples, this value is reduced by the demagnetizing effect or the geometrical effect as follows: RJtRDBzc0max,)/( = where D(R/t) is a geometrical constant that depends on the shape (the ratio of radius/thickness)

36、easurements 11). There are several ways to measure the trapped flux density of BHTSC. A typical measurement procedure is as follows. Firstly, the field is applied on the superconductor. Secondly, the sample is fixed on the cold head of a cryostat, which is cooled to the target temperature by using a
37、 cooling device. After reaching the target temperature, the external field is removed. The distribution of the field trapped by the BHTSC is then measured by scanning a Hall sensor over the specimen surface at a defined gap. This is the so-called field-cooled (FC) method of magnetization. y x Hall s

This is due initially to flux flow and later to flux creep (c
39、ollectively termed flux relaxation). The initial peak value shall not be used for the design of machines. The trapped flux density values are those measured after a sufficiently long time has passed since the appropriate measurement conditions were reached. The trapped flux density values shall be m
40、easured at least 15 min after the external field is removed from the specimen under test. The target precision of this method is that the coefficient of variation in any inter-comparison test shall be 5 % or less for measurements performed within 1 month of each other 2. It is the responsibility of
41、the user of this standard to consult and establish appropriate safety and health practices and to determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. Specific precautionary statements are given below. 1)Figures in square brackets refer to the bibliography. Licensed Copy: Wang Bin, na

Very large direct currents with very low voltages do not necessarily provide a direct personal hazard, but strong magnetic fields trapped by the BHTSC may cause the problem. It is i
43、mperative to shield magnetic fields. Also the energy stored in the superconducting magnets commonly used for generating the magnetic field can cause large current and/or voltage pulses, or deposit a large amount of thermal energy in the cryogenic systems causing rapid boil-off or even explosive cond
44、itions. Direct contact of skin with cold liquid transfer lines, storage dewars or apparatus components can cause immediate freezing, as can direct contact with a spilled cryogen. It is imperative that safety precautions for handling cryogenic liquids be observed. 6 Apparatus 6.1 Cryostat The cryosta
45、t shall include a BHTSC specimen support and a liquefied cryogen reservoir for the measurements. Other cooling devices can also be used for the temperature control of the specimens. Before measurements, the specimen shall be held at the measured temperature for a sufficient amount of time to cool, s
46、ince large grain BHTSC specimens in typical size (greater than 3 cm in diameter) require a long time for the entire body to reach the target temperature. The recommended waiting time can be estimated by considering the size and thermal conductivity coefficient of the BHTSC. For a large grain BHTSC,
47、the temperature tends to increase during the measurements, so the power of the cooling device shall be large enough to avoid a temperature rise of the specimen. 6.2 Activation magnet In principle, any activation magnet or a magnetizing device can be used as long as the trapped flux density is satura
48、ted (see Clause A.3). The activation magnet shall have a working area larger than the dimension of BHTSC. The magnetizing field required to saturate the field trapping ability of BHTSC is determined by the demagnetizing factor of the sample (see Clause A.3). If the field strength of the activation m
49、agnet is high enough, the applied field does not need to be uniform. Pulse field activation is not recommended for standardization, since the error associated with this magnetization process is very large and its results are generally non-reproducible. 6.3 Support of BHTSC During trapped flux density measurements, large electromagnetic forces will act on the BHTSC. Therefore, the BHTSC shall be firmly fixed to the support, which shall be non-magnetic and have a high enough mech
