Abstract
Temperature dependence of transport ac losses in two Bi-2223/Ag multifilamentary tapes with different dc current–voltage characteristics was measured using a lock-in technique at power frequencies. At each temperature, different criteria for critical current determination were used. Comparisons of normalised ac losses with predictions of theoretical models for a tape with elliptical cross-section and a thin strip were made. It was found that the form of the current–voltage characteristic and the critical current criterion play an important role in comparison with theoretical data. A new normalisation procedure of ac loss data is proposed.
