Stability and protection of CICCs: an updated designer's view.

Author(s) : BOTTURA L.

Summary

This paper gives an update on stability and protection of CICCs (cable-in-conduit conductors), with the main focus on simple analytical formulae to be used for cable design purposes. The status of the present understanding is reviewed, collecting the main results as far as possible into a consistent notation. Various additional aspects of present interest are briefly discussed, such as special cable configurations (hybrid cables, cables with additional cooling channels) and operation in superfluid helium. Some considerations on cable current distributions, and its effect on cable stability, are given.
