A high-temperature superconducting cable was successfully tested in a background field of 19.8 T at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory. The CORC cable was wound from 40 superconducting tapes and had an outer diameter of only 7.5 mm. The cable carried a superconducting current of 4101 A at a temperature of 4.2 K in a […]
A layer-wound magnet that was constructed from a high-temperature superconducting cable was successfully tested at a temperature of 4.2 K and in a background field of 19.81 T. The CORC cable consisted of 20 superconducting tapes that were wound into 6 layers, forming a cable with an outer diameter of 7 mm. The cable was
The first test ever of a high-temperature superconducting cable at a magnetic field of 20 T at 4.2 K demonstrates the possibilities of our cable for high-field magnets. The flexible cable was wound into a loop with a 12 cm diameter and inserted in the 20 T Bitter magnet at the National High Magnetic Field

A high-temperature superconducting cable aimed at 5 MW dc-power transmission at 270 V for Department of Defense applications that operate at 55 K has been constructed and successfully tested at 76 K. The flexible cable, which has a outer diameter of only 10 mm, carries a superconducting current of 7550 A during single-phase operation and
