Abstract

This paper presents a study on the stability of bare and cu-laminated YBCO-coated conductor. we investigate the characteristics of quench/recovery behavior of YBCO test samples. bare and copper-laminated, by subjecting each test sample. immersed in a bath of liquid nitrogen boiling at 77.3 K. to a transport current pulse superimposed to a baseline DC current of 90-95% the critical current. The current pulse has an amplitude up to ∼4.5 times the critical current and a duration of 300 ms. This paper presents both experimental and simulation results.
