HIGH TEMPERATURE SUPERCONDUCTOR TAPE FOR QUENCH DETECTION IN SUPERCONDUCTING MAGNETS

摘要

A high temperature superconductor, HTS, tape (100) for detecting a quench in a superconducting magnet. The HTS tape comprises an HTS layer (101) of HTS material supported by a substrate (102). The HTS layer is divided into a plurality of strips (104,105,107). The strips are connected (106) in series along an open path.
