M. Ciszek et al., AC LOSSES OF AG-(BI,PB)SRCACUO-2223 TAPES IN COMBINATION OF TRANSVERSE EXTERNAL MAGNETIC-FIELD AND TRANSPORT CURRENT, IEEE transactions on applied superconductivity, 5(2), 1995, pp. 709-712
We present the results of measurements of the AC transport (self-field
) and magnetic losses on silver sheathed (Bi,Pb)SrCaCuO-2223 tapes pre
pared by the powder in tube method. In the frequency range 30 - 540 Hz
the transport current the losses are hysteretic in nature. Losses ari
sing from AC external magnetic field (frequency range 65 -207 Hz, ampl
itude up to 60 mT) are compared with losses generated by AC transport
currents. The measured transport loss voltage depends strongly on the
position of the potential taps on the surface of the tapes, Losses due
to combined AC applied magnetic fields and transport currents are als
o reported.
