Abstract

A forced-cooled superconductor wherein a plurality of superconducting wires are placed within a hollow stabilizer of substantially rectangular section; and a first passage for passing a coolant is longitudinally formed between the stabilizer and a casing encasing the stabilizer, the stabilizer having a plurality of second passages formed therethrough for flowing the coolant from the first passage to the inside of the stabilizer so that the coolant flows through the second passages into the space defined between the superconducting wires for direct cooling. The stabilizer includes a pair of channel members opposedly fitted together to form into a substantially rectangular tube.
