Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A superconducting wire has a tape-like shape, and includes a superconducting layer. An amount of heat required to raise temperature from 77 K to 300 K, for a unit region having a length of 1 m and a width of 4 mm in the superconducting wire, is more than or equal to 200 J and less than or equal to 500 J.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A superconducting wire with a tape-like shape, comprising a superconducting layer, wherein an amount of heat required to raise temperature from 77 K to 300 K, for a unit region having a length of 1 m and a width of 4 mm in the superconducting wire, is more than or equal to 200 J and less than or equal to 500 J. 2 . The superconducting wire according to claim 1 , wherein the superconducting wire has a mean thermal conductivity at a temperature of 77 K of more than or equal to 100 W/(m·K). 3 . The superconducting wire according to claim 1 , wherein the superconducting wire comprises a substrate layer having a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, the superconducting layer has a third surface and a fourth surface opposite to the third surface, and is disposed on the substrate layer such that the third surface faces the second surface, and the superconducting wire further comprises a coating layer disposed on the first surface and on the fourth surface. 4 . A superconducting coil comprising: the superconducting wire according to claim 1 ; and an insulator, wherein the superconducting wire is wound to have a spiral shape with a space being interposed between windings of the superconducting wire, and the space is filled with the insulator.
