Superconductor Thermal Stability under the Effect of the Dual-Phase-Lag Conduction Model

The superconductor thermal stability is investigated under the effect of the dualphase- lag heat conduction model. Two types of superconductors are considered, Types I and II. It is found that the dual-phase-lag model predicts a wider stable region as compared to the predictions of the parabolic and the hyperbolic heat conduction models. Also, the superconductor thermal stability under the effect of different design, geometrical and operating conditions is studied.
