Relation between Current Transfer Length and Stability of Fe/MgB₂and Fe/Nb/MgB₂Conductors

Abstract

This paper treats and confronts the stability of two different composite MgB 2 superconductors and searches for relation between the current transfer length and maximum heat flux that conductor can withstand in operational DC regime. It was found that the iron sheathed wire behave more stably than tape-like conductor with outer iron sheath and inner niobium barrier.
