  • Abstract
    In determining the short sample critical current of conductors of large cross section or high current density, the self-field produced by the transport current must be taken into account to obtain a true value for the critical current. A simple model calculation for determining this effect is described. Measurements on wires, cables, and monoliths show the validity and self-consistency of the procedures
