SUPERCONDUCTING CURRENT-LIMITER

摘要

PURPOSE:To provide a current-limiter whose self-inductance is reduced in a superconducting state to reduce a transmission loss in a steady state. CONSTITUTION:In a superconducting coil unit where a coil 2 is applied to the outer circumference of the superconducting cylinder 1 of a superconducting magnetic shielding unit, flange parts 4 which cut off the flux of the coil 2 are provided at least along the circumferences of both ends of the superconducting cylinder 1. With this constitution, the loss of a steady state transmission current in a superconducting state can be reduced substantially.
