Towards a more “flux-jump” stable Towards a more “flux-jump” stable conductorconductor

• Why ?– Intrinsic (Adiabatic) stability of wire– Field quality in magnets

• Reduce Effective Filament Diameter Deff

– Deff < 30 m (adiabatic limit not established experimentally for high Jc wire )

• For Deff > 35 m, maintain high RRR after reaction prevent Sn-leakage

• OST-RRP- 91 and 127 sun-element billet design – Cabling Effects

• Shearing of sub-elements RRR degradation

• SMI-PIT- 288– 50 m at 1.25 mm wire– 32 m at 0.8 mm wire


Decreasing the sub-element sizeDecreasing the sub-element size

• Pack increasing number of sub-elements into Re-stack– Increasing number of bundles packing more difficult– More cold work increases the hardness of non-Sn parts– Additional Cu-Cu surfaces worse bonding yield ?


91-127-217 series made with Nb-Ta for 91-127-217 series made with Nb-Ta for CDP R&DCDP R&D

• High Jc design (3000 A/mm2):

• Objective was to only vary the sub-element size– same sub element billet for all restacks– all restacks ~53% non-Cu, 0.7 mm strand

• Significant wire breakage for all, 217-stack the worst– For a reaction at 665 C/50hrs

(Jc, RRR)

• 91-stack 2920, 134

• 127-stack 2720, 110

• 217-stack 2660, 7 (Many broken barriers)

Suggests there is some size effect controlling the maximum Jc

• Is OST ready to produce 91 and 127 sub-element billets ?“Further to our discussions today about 61 127 stack

designs for LARP, this year we are producing 91-stack material for the EFDA dipole. The sub-element design is for lower Jc and uses Nb-Ti (Jc ~2400 @ 12 T), but the work will give us some yield data on our way to 127 stacks.”

Based on CDP R&D billet 8079 (90/91) and FNAL billet 8195 (108/127) both of which uses the same sub-elements of Nb/Nb-47Ti

• Is OST ready to produce 91 and 127 sub-element billets ?

• At present the lower Jc ( > 2000 A/mm2) 91-design billet is moving into production EFDA Order of 400 kg

• Under CDP R&D this year, a high Jc 108/127 billet is being processed (Nov-06)

• FNAL has OST fabricating a R&D billet using 120/127 design (Dec-06)

• NED is pushing SMI-VAC to develop strand.

• Latest billet B207 is 288 filament, similar to B179– Strand Diameter 1.25 mm– Cu/Non-Cu= 0.96– Jc > 2400 A/mm2 At 12 T

by ~ 10 - 15 % due to powder preparation which underwent by mistake an additional HT.

SummarySummary

• There is sufficient RRP 54/61 strand for the magnets in the near term

• 91-filament is moving into production

• 127 filament can be in production within 12 months.

• PIT strand with 288 filaments is “flux-jump” stable at 0.8 mm wire diameter with Jc ~ 2100 A/mm2 at 12 T

• Cabling Degradation from filament shearing– Optimization of cabling parameters– Optimization of strand design

• Increase filament spacing ? (FNAL has already ordered a 60/61 billet with larger Cu-spacing, evaluation in progress)
