In this study, we fabricated Bi-2223/Ag high temperature superconducting tapes using PIT (Powder-In-Tube) process to apply the superconducting magnet, cable and etc. It's inevitable to deform the superconducting tapes with axial strain for application. Therefore, for the characterization of the strain sensitivity of the superconducting properties, the degradation of Bi-2223/Ag tapes due to axial strain were investigated by measuring the critical current as a function of applied tension strain and external magnetic field. The critical current of Bi-2223/Ag tapes were decreased slightly up to 0.3∼0.4% applied strain but, drastically decreased more than these strains. Superconducting filament cores consisted of brittle ceramic fibers were broken easily by the large strain and current path were decreased simultaneously.

Using Ag sheathed multi filamentary Bi-2223 tape, stability against heat pulse has been investigated. The measured normal zone propagation(NZP) velocity of the tape was found to be faster due to increase of operating current and magnetic field, and agree well with calculated data from one dimensional heat balance equation. Minimum quench energy(MQE) was found to be larger than 17 J at 30 K zero magnetic filed at operating current of 96.5 with respect to I$_c$.

Bi-2223/Ag HTS tapes fabricated by PIT process are used to make the power transmission cable, motor, fault current limiter, transformer etc. But some problems are still remained as like bubbling, sausaging to got the high Jc. In this study. we carried out the experiment to prevent bubbling in the HTS tape. The bubbling mainly occurred when HTS tape was heat-treating. Therefore, additional vacuum annealing at 400 ~ $600^{\circ}C$and slowly ramp-up sintering method were used to decrease the bubbling. slowly ramp-up sintering was more effective to decrease the bubbling than the vacuum annealing, but Jc was also decreased after heat treatment. Optimum ramp-up sintering schedule was searched to get the high critical current and prevent bubbling at same time.

Intermediate annealing was carried out during wire drawing for uniform deformation of 500 m class Bi-2223/Ag HTS tapes. Wire drawing force was measured to evaluate the uniformity of wire deformation along the length. To prevent sausage and filament breakage of wire, drawing stress was controlled below 200 MPa by using intermediate annealing process. Thickness and width of the rolled tapes was measured 0.23 mm and 4.1 mm with low deviation $\pm$ 0.08 mm and $\pm$ 0.09 mm, respectively. The critical current of the 500 m tapes was measured 33.7 A $\pm$ 3.7 A by continuous critical current measurement system.

We evaluated the effect of processing variables on microstructural evolution interface irregularity between Ag sheath and superconductor core and resultant critical current density(J$_{c}$) of (Bi,Pb)$_2$Sr$_2$Ca$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{x}$(2223) superconductor tape. The value of J$_{c}$ was significantly influenced by the interface irregularity, degree of texturing and relative 2223 content. The interface became more irregular(sausage effect), while the degree of texturing gradually improved as the dimension of tape decreased during forming process. As the dimension of wire/tape were changed from diameter of 3.25 mm to thickness of 0.20 mm, J$_{c}$ value was observed to be increased by 10 times. In addition, optimum sintering temperature for improved J$_{c}$ was observed to be 835$^{\circ}C$ in a ambient atmosphere probably due to combined effect of both improved texturing and high 2223 content. Microstructural investigation showed the degree of texturing was degraded by the existence of both second phases and interface irregularity. It was observed that larger grain size and better texturing was developed near relatively flat interface compared to those inside superconducting core.ting core.

The effects of joining process such as contact method, shape of joined area and pressure on the properties of Bi-2223 superconducting tape have been optimized. In the process tapes were etched to expose the superconductor core in the shape of 'ㅁ' and 'ㄷ'. The exposed cores of the two tapes were brought into contact, uniaxially pressed and sintered. Subsequently, the current capacity of the joined tape was measured as a function of uniaxial pressure. It was observed that the current capacity was significantly dependent on uniaxial pressure. The joined tape, fabricated with a pressure of 1,600 MPa, showed the highest value of current capacity(90%) of highest value of current capacity is resulted from improvements in core density, contacting area and grain alignment, etc. In addition the effect of processing variables on microstructural evolution and mechanical property of joined tape will be presented.

The various type Ag sheathed Bi-2223 tapes have been were fabricated by Powder-in-tube(PIT) process. The critical current density could be improved with the value of $23,000\;A/cm^2$(77 K, zero field) in the single concentric Bi-2223 tape. The bending property dependence of $I_c$ was improved in the double concentric Bi-2223 tape compared with single filamentary and single concentric one.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the crystal texture of the 2223 phase and its relationship with PIT processing parameter. Ag-sheathed Bi-2223 multi-filament tapes were prepared by changing rolling reduction ratio. We analysed the degree of texture for 2223 phase after heat-treatment. According to X-ray pole-figure, the texture of the filaments located near surface and center were not so different each other for all rolling conditions. we found a little higher degree of texture for 60% rolling reduction. But its difference is not so high compared with those tapes with a lower rolling reduction ratio. Reaction induced texturing seemed to contribute with a large portion under present condition.

we evaluated the effects of joining process such as contact method. shape of joined area and pressure on the electrical and mechanical properties of Bi-2223 superconducting tape, Specifically. the current capacity of the jointed tape was measured as a function of uniaxial pressure. and the thermal shock, bonding strength and the thermal of the tape were evaluated and correlated to the microstructural evolution. It was observed that the current capacity was significanrly dependent on the uniaxial pressure The jointed tape, fabricated with a pressure of 1,000-1,600 Mpa. showed the highest value of current capacity results from improvements in core density, contacting area and grain alignment, ect. In addition, the strength of jointed tape was measured to be 86 Mpa, which is about 88% of the unjoined ape's strength. The irreversible strain($\varepsilon$irrev) for the jointed tape was measured to be 0.1%, smaller than that of unjoined tape ($\varepsilon$irrev= 0.3%). The decrease in the strength and irreversible strain for jointed tape is believed to be due to the irregular geometry/morphology of the transition area of the tape.

Bi-2223/Ag tapes need to be safe, even it is under the over-critical current state for the protection of a superconducting power machine. However, it is not easy to identify the condition for the safe operation because of their broad S/N transition region. In this paper, for the study of the operation condition of Bi-2223/ Ag tapes, we investigated the V-I curves and the temperature variation of Bi-2223/ Ag tapes experimentally, applying alternating over-currents, and analyzed the relationship between resistance and temperature increase. For the experiments, a Bi-2223/Ag tape of 57 A $I_c$ was prepared, and the over-critical current characteristics under adiabatic state from $LN_2$ was measured. From the experiments, we confirmed that the Joule heating predicted by V-I curve corresponded with the increase of the measured temperature exactly. Using the results, a safe operation condition of Bi-2223 tape was discussed.
