  • Abstract
    Investigations of a.c. losses and stability of a mixed-matrix NbTi multifilamentary conductor are presented. Fine filament size of 1.0 μm and a tight twist of 5.5 times the wire diameter 0.2 mm result in a time constant of the eddy current of 0.024 msec at 1.0 T. If this conductor is used in superconducting armature windings of rotating machines or in a.c. magnets, generating a maximum field of 1.0 T, economical benefits are expected at operation frequencies below 20 Hz.
