Type of article: Article
Summary
THIS PAPER DETAILS A DESIGN STUDY OF A SUPERCONDUCTING OPENING SWITCH SUITABLE FOR DISCHARGING THE STORED ENERGY OF A SUPERCONDUCTING INDUCTOR INTO A LOAD AT ROOM TEMPERATURE IN A MICROSECOND. IN ORDER TO ACHIEVE A REASONABLE REPETITION RATE OF 10 HERTZ, THE SUPERCONDUCTING ELEMENT MUST BE A THIN FILM. THE DESIGN IS MADE SPECIFIC TO 10,000 V AND 10,000 A. SAVINGS IN SIZE AND COST WOULD OCCUR WITH MODEST INCREASES IN THE CRITICAL CURRENT DENSITY AND/OR NORMAL STATE RESISTIVITY OF CANDIDATE FILM MATERIALS.
