The Institute of Plasma Physics Chinese Academy of Sciences (ASIPP) has been designing several types of high current REBCO Conductor On Round Core (CORC) Cable-In-Conduit Conductors (CICCs) for use in Central Solenoid (CS) magnet of …

Development of low-resistance CORC®-CICC joints for use in demountable magnets for fusion and their performance up to 10 kA within a background magnetic field of up to 8 T

Three-dimensional (3D) models of CORC and CICC with varying pitches are established, the critical current and dynamic resistance of CICC are calculated by analytic and simulated methods respectively at temperature of 77 K based on the T-A model. The results show that the numerical dynamic resistances are in good agreement with the analytical ...

CORC® cables and wires are maturing into magnet conductors • CORC® cable performance 10 kA and 300-600 A/mm 2 at 20 T • CORC® wire performance 2-3 kA and 250-350 A/mm 2 at 20 T

2024年12月30日 · The CORC ® wire Ic was robust to this type of “twisting + bending” deformation, with an overall degradation of ∼10% with respect to the straight, non-twisted wire. We also describe a CICC twisting process that potentially allows twisting of continuous-length CICCs after the CORC ® wires are inserted.

2021年7月1日 · A 6-around-1 CORC® cable-in-conduit conductor (CICC) is also considered for the TF coil winding pack to achieve a performance of 64 kA at 4.2 K, 20 T. Table 2 presents CORC® cable parameters used for TF coils. Fig. 3 presents single CORC® CICCs operated at 10.7 kA and a 6-around-1 CORC® CICC of over 64 kA. The slotted copper cable support ...

CORC CICC - Joint terminal design • Short sample current is distributed in terminals. • Strands are tapered, allows current to flow evenly into each layer of each CORC strand. • Strands are straight inside the terminal. • Half a cable pitch difference between terminals improves current distribution among strands.

Conductor On Round Core (CORC) is a flexible round ReBCO wire/cable. ReBCO tapes are wound in several layers around a metal core. The model predicts the optimal joint resistance. The model can optimize the terminal layout. The results are scalable to CORC CICC terminals.

2020年1月21日 · Abstract: In recent years, three unique ReBCO-CORC CICC samples with six-around-one cable layout were developed as technology demonstrators at CERN in collaboration with Advanced Conductor Technologies. The tests of these conductors at low temperature in external magnetic field yielded very promising results, but also showed several issues ...

2024年12月1日 · These findings provide valuable design and fabrication data for the development of multi-filamentary CORC or CICC conductors, particularly in determining the appropriate metal cable core size for multi-filamentary CORC conductors.
