Abstract

In superconducting system, current lead connecting cryogenic device and normal temperature copper cable is the main leakage heat source of entire system. Its performance directly affects cooling cost of cryogenic system. Multi-current leads have advantages of eliminating Joule heat and reducing heat conduction leakage. As a commonly superconducting material, MgB <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sub> (magnesium diboride) has broad application prospects. In this paper, the current lead of 200 A MgB <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sub> cable and normal temperature copper cable are designed and calculated. The heat transfer power of superconducting section and the conventional current lead section are 17.90 W and 18 W, respectively. The numerical simulation method is used to verify and analyze calculation results. The temperature at interface between normal temperature copper wire and current lead is lower than 70 K.
