Abstract :
An optimisation procedure for the design of CICC´s is applied to a parametric scan on the effect of the superconductor critical properties (Jc, Tc) operating conditions (B, strain) and other design parameters (RRR, strand diameter, limit on the strand Cu:non-Cu ratio). The parameter with the strongest influence on the optimal design performance is Tc, while surprisingly large variations in Jc can be accommodated at minor loss in performance
