Abstract
Scaling rules that provide guidelines for choosing the parameters for a wide range of superconducting cables are given. These parameters include strand size, strand number, keystone angle, percentage of compaction, cable pitch, and compacted cable dimensions. In addition, the tolerance ranges for the key cable manufacturing parameters such as mandrel size and shape, strand tension, and Turkshead temperature control are defined. Results on cables ranging from 8 strands to 36 strands of 0.65-mm wire and from 8 strands to 30 strands of 0.8-mm wire are presented. These results are used to demonstrate the application of the scaling rules for Rutherford-type cable.
