Optimization of the heat treatment schedule for next european dipole (NED) powder in tube Nb$_{3}$Sn strand
A Nb$_{3}$Sn strand was successfully developed by the company SMI for Next European Dipole (NED) activity and on the basis of Powder-In-Tube (PIT) method. This strand, after the standard reaction recommended by the firm (84 h @ 675 oC), presents attractive performances as a critical current density...

description | A Nb$_{3}$Sn strand was successfully developed by the company SMI for Next European Dipole (NED) activity and on the basis of Powder-In-Tube (PIT) method. This strand, after the standard reaction recommended by the firm (84 h @ 675 oC), presents attractive performances as a critical current density in the non-copper part of ~ 2500 A/mm2 for 4.2 K and 12 T applied field, an effective filament diameter of ~ 50 μm and limited flux jumps at low magnetic fields. Heat treatment optimization studies are currently performed at CERN to try to optimize the strand electric abilities. For this purpose, various heat treatment schedules were already investigated with a plateau temperature as low as 625 oC. The preliminary results of these studies are summarized here. |
