Popis: | Since its discovery in 2001, MgB2 has generated interest for practical applications. Its availability in the form of multifilamentary round wire makes it suitable for production of cables. Together with relatively high critical temperature and potential low-cost, this renders it appealing for use in superconducting devices where its limited in-field performance can be tolerated. The state-of-the-art properties of commercially available wire and the potential of MgB2 conductors for use in superconducting systems are discussed. An overview of high-current electrical transmission projects where MgB2 has been proposed as an alternative to conventional Nb-Ti or High Temperature Superconductors is presented. |
