Abstract

A reinforced superconducting wire (1a) has a superconducting core strand (2) and a first cladding with a multitude of reinforcing strands (3). The reinforcing strands (3) are arranged around the circumferential surface of the superconducting core strand (2) in a non-crossing manner and are in contact with the core strand (2). The wire has a reinforcement for enhancing its mechanical properties against external stresses and for preventing diameter expansion during heat treatment. In addition to other advantages, such superconducting wire can be produced with an easy and low-cost production process.
