Summary

Conductors cut from large YBCO single domains textured by a combination of Melt Texturing Growth and Top Seeding techniques were studied for fault current limiter applications. Above critical-current densities, experiments focused on magnetothermal transitions showed that the silver coating should have an adequate thickness so as to prevent the conductors from burning. Capability of textured materials to support high instantaneous power and energy dissipation during the transition was demonstrated in a 4 T magnetic field.
