Abstract
The 50 kA transformer for Samsung Superconductor Test Facility (SSTF), which will charge the Korean Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research cable-in-conduit conductor samples for 1 s is under design. The NbTi based conductors for primary and secondary windings are described. The primary winding conductor consists of six NbTi and six stainless steel strands cabled around rectangular copper core. Such a design was previously used by Kurchatov Institute in small SMES windings. The secondary winding conductor consists of 24 subcables wrapped around and soldered to a copper strip. Each subcable consists of six NbTi strands cabled around one copper strand. NbTi strands for both primary and secondary windings are 0.85 mm in diameter. NbTi wires have 8910 6-μm filaments. Both primary and secondary winding conductors have large current and temperature margins to ensure a reliable operation of the superconducting transformer.
