Losses in ac of BSCCO-2223 superconducting monofilament and multifilament tapes at power frequencies
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 31 January 2011
Abstract
The ac magnetic losses at power frequencies (60 Hz) were investigated for mono- and multifilament Ag-sheathed (Bi, Pb)2Sr2Ca2Cu3Oy (BSCCO-2223) tapes with similar Ic values at 77 K. The multifilament sample exhibited higher losses than the monofilament under the same conditions. Loss peaks are discussed in terms of intergranular, intragranular, and eddy current losses. Because of BSCCO's anisotropy, field orientation has a large effect on the magnitude of these peaks, even at relatively small angles. Losses for fields applied parallel to the c-axis of the textured BSCCO grains are larger by over an order of magnitude than those applied perpendicular.
