Overview

Analysis reveals optimal contact pressure distribution in high-temperature superconducting tapes for efficient testing.

Key Points

  • The research aims to optimize connections for high-temperature superconducting (HTS) tapes during cryogenic testing.
  • Developed a solid model to analyze stress distribution in connections using two, four, and six screws.
  • Investigated contact resistance dependencies on area and pressure uniformity.
  • Calculated thermal shrinkage and configured optimal disc spring stack for maintaining pressure.
  • Identified a solution providing uniform pressure distribution across the HTS tape surface.
  • Determined the necessary stroke and pressure maintenance across operational temperature ranges.
