The objective of this study is to supply information on the cooling design of high-Tc superconducting apparatuses such as the high-Tc super-conducting transformer. A thin wire of platinum-30% rodium with a diameter of 0.05mm was simultaneously used for the heater and the thermometer. The effect of space restrictions around wire on heat transfer characteristics was also examined by using transparent acrylic tubes covering thin wires, which simulated the complicated structure of a cooling system for high-Tc superconducting apparatuses. The heat transfer characteristics of subcooled nitrogen were compared with those of saturated nitrogen, and it was found that heat transfer was remarkably enhanced with the degree of subcooling.","PeriodicalId":93144,"journal":{"name":"Teion kogaku = Cryogenic engineering : [official journal of the Cryogenic Association of Japan]","volume":"37 1","pages":"485-491"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68187774","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Jc of the as-cold rolled (un-sintered) tape significantly increased with the increase of total cross-sectional area reduction by the cold working. Hard sheath materials such as Fe-C and stainless steel are effective to enhance the packing density of MgB2 core and, therefore, to increase Jc values. Non heat treated MgB2 tapes with Fe-C and stainless steel sheaths showed extrapolated Jc values of-3.0-4.5×109A/m2 at 4.2K and zero field. Heat treatment after the cold rolling is effective to enhance Jc values. An order of magnitude higher Jc values were obtained for Fe, Fe-C, and stainless steel sheathed tapes after the heat treatment. Extrapolated Jc values well above 1010A/m2 at 4.2K and a zero magnetic field were obtained for stainless steel and Fe-C sheathed MgB2 tapes. Jc values of PIT-processed MgB2 tapes are less sensitive to strain than those of PIT-processed Bi-based oxide tapes. It is reported that the addition of soft metal powder such as In or Sn to the MgB2 powder is effective to enhance Jc values. We made -10m-long tapes with Ni sheaths, and fabricated small solenoid coil with this tape without sintering. The Ic of the coil was about 80% of the Ic of the short tape, indicating that the homogeneity of Ic in the 10m tape is fairly good. The coil generated 1.3kGauss at 4.2K.","PeriodicalId":93144,"journal":{"name":"Teion kogaku = Cryogenic engineering : [official journal of the Cryogenic Association of Japan]","volume":"63 1","pages":"457-464"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68187607","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The current ripple of the HWRC is large, and we discussed the cooling capability of the current ripple. The experimental results revealed that the temperature difference of the thermoelectric-element (TE) increased with the magnitude of the current in the PCL system, despite the large current ripple. Calorimetric measurements revealed that the PCL reduced the heat leak of 60% for the peak current 90A. We compared the PCL systems of the direct current (dc) mode and the HWRC mode. The results showed that the current dependence of the temperature difference in the HWRC mode did not match that of the dc mode, but those of the heat leak matched well. The performance of the Peltier cooling in the HWRC mode is reduced to be 2/πtime of the Seebeck coefficient for the dc mode by using the time-average method.","PeriodicalId":93144,"journal":{"name":"Teion kogaku = Cryogenic engineering : [official journal of the Cryogenic Association of Japan]","volume":"37 1","pages":"472-478"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68187692","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The concept of magnetic refrigeration is based on the magnetocaloric effect (MCE); therefore the development of magnetic materials with a large MCE is strongly desired. In this article we first review the recent development of magnetic refrigerator at temperatures of 20-300K. We then report on the recent progress of magnetic materials with a large MCE. The giant MCE was observed in Er (Co1-xNix)2, MnAs1-xSbx and Mn3GaC in temperature ranges of below 30K, above 220K and at around 160K, respectively. The origin of the giant MCE in these compounds is the first-order magnetic transition (FOMT). The advantage of utilizing the FOMT system as a magnetic refrigerant material is also described.","PeriodicalId":93144,"journal":{"name":"Teion kogaku = Cryogenic engineering : [official journal of the Cryogenic Association of Japan]","volume":"37 1","pages":"397-403"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-08-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68187476","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
