Abstract :
The AC loss measurement system in the Twente test facility is operational. Preliminary results of the first loss measurements on a vacuum-welded conductor are presented. The Twente test facility is a high-current system in which superconductors can be tested up to 7 T and 25 kA. The loss measurements were done on a monolith conductor designed for TORE SUPRA, manufactured by Vacuumschmelze.
