Abstract

In this paper, we describe the mechanical strain effects on the critical current density of HTS (BSCCO) pancake-type-magnet. Firstly the strain of pancake coil is calculated in terms of coil length, which is also a function of angle, and then the critical current density degradation due to strain is calculated along the coil. We assumed that the critical current density degradation pattern is same with that of $Nb_{3}Sn$. We also modelled the effects of magnetic field on the critical curent degradation, and the results are compared with those with null magnetic field.
