Superconductors Thermal Stability under the Effect of the Hyperbolic Heat Conduction Model

Abstract

The superconductor thermal stability is investigated under the effect of the hyperbolic heat conduction model. Two types of superconductors are considered which are types I and II. The superconductor thermal stability under the effect of different design, geometrical and operating conditions is studied. The effects of the time rate of change of the disturbance initial temperature and the disturbance duration on the superconductor stability is investigated. In general, it is found that the wave model predicts a wider stability region as compared to the prediction of the diffusion model.
