Critical property of Ba-122 Iron-based tapes under torsional
In order to promote the practical development of iron-based superconducting tape,a pure torsion test device for iron-based superconducting tape was developed in this paper.The critical properties of 7-filamentary(Ba-122)tape was an-alyzed under torsional strain.The critical current of tape decreases under torsional strain and decreases with the increase of tor-sional strain.The measurement results of four pairs of voltage signals are consistent,indicating uniform torsion deformation.With 95%initial critical current as the critical torsion standard,the critical torsion angle of the strip is 120°,the corresponding critical shear strain is 0.86%and the critical torsion pitch is 240 mm.The torsional stress can damage the superconducting filamentary and reduce the critical current-carrying performance of the tape.
