Abstract
We should prevent non-uniform current distribution due to manufacturing errors of tape size, coil size, and conductor deformation in the toroidal coil composed of multiple YBCO double pancake coils. This is because the non-uniform current distribution causes the increase of AC losses and the decrease of critical current in the YBCO tapes. Therefore, we analytically investigated the relationship between the manufacturing error and the current distribution in the toroidal coils composed of the eight series-connected double pancake coils composed of the transposed conductor with two parallel-connected YBCO tapes and the eight sets of two parallel-connected double pancake coils composed of single YBOC tape conductor connected in series. The parallel-connected multiple double pancake coils composed of single tape conductor is much more effective for preventing the non-uniform current distribution than the double pancake coil composed of the transposed conductor with parallel-connected multiple tapes. The non-uniformity of current distribution can be improved by increasing the length of parallel-connected current path by increasing the number of series-connected double pancake coils in each current path.
