Abstract

The heat generated in the high-Tc superconducting (HTS) devices is related with the cost efficiency and safe factor of HTS devices. This paper deals with the quench at the conduction-cooled joint between the HTS wire and copper terminals. The 3-D numerical simulation of this phenomenon was implemented and compared with the experimental results. The experiment was implemented with the HTS wire mounted on the copper blocks cooled with a Gifford McMahon (GM) cryocooler.
