Abstract
The Institute of Plasma Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences (ASIPP) is responsible for the construction and performance testing of the 30 pairs of the international thermonuclear experimental reactor high-temperature superconducting (HTS) current leads. The first pair of poloidal field (PF) coil type, 52-kA HTS current lead prototypes was built and cold tested in ASIPP in mid-2016. The test results demonstrated their excellent performance on low joint resistance, long loss of flow accident time, and high current-sharing temperature. The overheating time, mass flow, and heat loads to 5-K ends also meet the requirements. This paper summarizes the major test results for the PF 52-kA HTS current lead prototypes.
