Abstract :
The current sharing region is an important factor in the specification of a superconducting composite. Therefore, the voltage-current characteristic of NbTi and Nb/sub 3/Sn superconductors with copper stabilizing matrix, as well as silver sheathed BSSCO-2223 are discussed under the aspect of current sharing and temperature effects.
