Abstract
- Abstract: The nondestructive and contact-free apparatus for measuring local critical current of long high temperature superconducting (HTS) tapes is presented. The local critical current of tape is acquired by using Hall probe array sensor to measure the remanent field after exposed to dc external magnetic field since the critical current is proportional to remanent field based on Bean critical state model. A detailed experiment on multifilamentary Bi2223/Ag tape is made to validate reproducibility, reliability, resolution, nondestructiveness and usefulness for manufacturer and user of tapes. The parameter COV (coefficient of critical current variation) is suggested for quantitatively describing the inhomogeneity and quality of practical long HTS tape based on Gaussian statistical analysis. The developed apparatus can detect HTS tape at velocity of 100m/h with resolution smaller than 3mm in liquid nitrogen. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
