Abstract
The high-Tc superconducting cable (米兰体育中国官方网站) is expected to be brought to practical application in the future as a power cable because it can simultaneously realize bulk power transmission, compactness, low loss and low cost. In particular, the coated-conductor of YBCO tape is promising as a superconducting material of the 米兰体育中国官方网站 thanks to a high critical current and a low cost. Furukawa Electric started developing the YBCO 米兰体育中国官方网站 in the last NEDO project as Collaborative Research and Development of Fundamental Technologies for Superconductivity Applications under a commission of ISTEC. We investigated the applicability of a coated-conductor to an 米兰体育中国官方网站 in the project, and we verified that a coated conductor has a good potential for 米兰体育中国官方网站s. Also, we studied about important technologies related to AC loss reduction, a cable design and a cable joint, and we fabricated and tested a 10 m-class 米兰体育中国官方网站.
