Abstract
Our research group has been researched for developing MgB2 superconducting energy apparatus in liquid hydrogen immersion cooling, such as superconducting generators.In this study, two-pole MgB2 race-track coil, which was a model for a few tens kVA superconducting generator field magnet, was designed and made. This coil consists of two pieces of a similar MgB2 race-track coil which has 529 turn with straight section of 150 mm, bending diameter in the end of section of 100 mm and thickness of 34 mm. We carried out excitation tests of the coil immersed in liquid hydrogen at the temperature of 21 K to 32 K, and the load line of the coil was obtained. The critical current under self-field was obtained for various temperatures. The normal zone propagation behavior of the coil at the quench was also investigated using several potential taps installed in the coil.
