SUPERCONDUCTING CURRENT LIMITING DEVICE WITH MAGNETIC FIELD ASSISTED QUENCHING

摘要

The present invention relates to a superconducting current limiting devi ce comprising a superconductor component (1) wherein each superconductor component (1) comprises a superconductor body (2) on which a coil (3) is wou nd the coil being electrically connected to the superconductor body (2) wherein in the superconducting current limiting device a magnetic field is generated on transition of the superconductor from the superconducting state to the norma l conducting state.
