Composite conductor, superconductive apparatus system, and composite conductor manufacturing method
First Claim
1. A composite conductor, comprising:
- a superconductor provided in a current flowing direction; and
a metal conductor joined to said superconductor and provided at least in a joint part with mating conductors to be joined, wherein an electric current is fed and received when the mating conductor is joined with said metal conductor, and wherein said superconductor is disposed in said metal conductor so as to be approximately parallel to the joint interface between said metal conductor and the mating conductor.

Abstract
To provide a composite conductor suitable as a connecting conductor capable of reducing generation of Joule heat in a joint part between a conductor on a system side and a conductor on a power-supply side, while using a superconductor with less thermal invasion to a superconductive apparatus system.
A composite conductor 10 comprises a superconductor 12 provided continuously in the flowing direction of the electric current, and a metal conductor 11 joined with the superconductor 12 and provided at least at a joint part with mating conductors 50, 60 to be joined, wherein the electric current is fed and received between the metal conductor 11 and the mating conductors 50, 60 by joining the metal conductor 11 and the mating conductors 50, 60, and wherein the superconductor 12 is arranged in the metal conductor 11 so as to be approximately parallel to the joint surface (joint interface) between the metal conductor 11 and the mating conductors 50, 60.

7. A manufacturing method of a composite conductor comprising a superconductor provided in a flowing direction of an electric current, and a metal conductor joined with said superconductor and provided at least in a joint part with a mating conductor to be joined, wherein the electric current is fed and received between said metal conductor and the mating conductor when the mating conductor is joined with said metal conductor, the method of manufacturing the composite conductor comprising:
-
heating the joint part at or above a melting point of the jointing metal; and
reducing the pressure to degas the jointing metal when the oxide superconductor and the metal electrode are joined with each other by the jointing metal.
