Evaluation Technology of Mechano-Electromagnetic Properties in HTS Superconducting Tapes for Practical Applications

HTS 초전도 테이프의 기계-전기적 특성 평가기술

HTS superconducting tapes are now commercially available for practical applications such as magnets and cables. Since superconductors in such applications are subjected to high mechanical loads that can significantly degrade the superconducting properties, mechanical properties and the strain tolerance known as the strain effect on superconducting properties are needed to be estimated for developing superconducting devices. The progress in technology achieved in the field of strain effect evaluation on the critical current of HTS tapes in various deformation modes is discussed in this study.
