Outline Nb3Sn FCC conductor: a significant challenge! Incremental improvement opportunities if Deff ~60 µm Renewed need for more fundamental Nb3Sn R&D Properties of present Nb3Sn accelerator strand Bi-2212 development progress Nb3Sn is not Nb-Ti: Review of conductor cost drivers Bridging technical and industrial gaps until the FCC

Nb3Sn is an engineering material Single Barrier – Discrete filaments, low Jc Distributed Barrier RRP® – high Nb% and Sn%

From materials science to actual strands Jc 15 T, 4.2 K (A/mm2) Suenaga et al., JAP 59 3 (1986) 840-853 Nb-7.5 Ta-0.8 Ti Nb-7.5 Ta-0.3 Ti

Strand cross sectional area optimization More Nb = Less Cu More Nb (+Sn) = More Nb3Sn Less Cu + More Sn = Better Nb3Sn

Present strands: Jc already nearly optimized(?) Sn at% nearly optimized across layer in Ti doped strands A. Godeke, Supercond. Sci. Technol. 19 (2006) R68-R80 P.J. Lee et al. (ASC ‘14) Z-H Sung et al. (ICMC ’13) FSU/ASC C.Tarantini et al., SuST 27 (2014) 065013 Uniform Nb3Sn grain size Ti doping close to optimal R. Flükiger, Cryogenics 48 (2008) 293-307 P.J. Lee et al. (ASC 2014)

Target FCC Nb3Sn strand performance Ballarino and Bottura, IEEE Trans Appl. Supercond. 25, (2015). Property Units Target RRP® Single barrier Strand diameter (mm) 0.5 - 1.0 mm  Jc (4.2 K, 16 T) (A/mm2)  1500 ? Need  25% X Filament size (Deff ) (m)  20 ? Need  50% RRR  150 Unit Length (km)  5 km ? 1 billet = 9 km @ 0.85 mm Cost (@ 12 T, 4.2 K) €/kA·m 1/3 of today’s costs of approximately €10/kA·m Only distributed barrier strands come close to target Jc Internal tin billets are not extruded  limited billet mass, maximum length Focus on distributed barrier, RRP® strand

Use lower HT temperatures → Both result in lower Jc Reducing the effective filament diameter seems to be the largest challenge Means to keep RRR high: Use less Sn Use lower HT temperatures → Both result in lower Jc Field et al. IEEE Trans Appl Supercond 24, 1–5 (2014). P.J. Lee, FSU-ASC High Jc, RRR when Deff ~50-60 µm

Reducing manufacturing variation might get us close to the target Jc performance FCC target ~1800 A/mm2 @ 15 T, 4.2 K 2,000 kg of strand 90 µm Deff RRR > 100 Ta doped Needed Jc improvement may be modest when: 60 µm Deff RRR > 100 1,000 kg of strand 55 µm Deff RRR > 150 Ti doped 300 kg of strand 58 µm Deff RRR > 100 Ti doped Near term R&D work will focus on maximizing Jc when Deff ~60 µm Step change may need to come from e.g. artificial pinning centers

High RRR, Jc maintained after cabling Ic values are maintained through >15% rolling RRR decreases >10% rolling, but remains >150 15% rolled RRP® is compatible with Rutherford cabling

Comparison of Nb-Ti and Nb3Sn production scale and cost drivers Parameter Nb-Ti Nb3Sn Cost challenge Nb content 18 wt% 26 wt% Nb is most expensive raw material (Cu:SC 1.3 assumed) Strand billet size 400 kg 40 kg Limited Nb3Sn piece lengths Billet stacking steps 2 3 ↑ Labor and time costs, also yield loss at each step Ongoing demand (infra-structure) 1000’s tons per year 10’s tons per year LHC was a fraction of annual Nb-Ti market FCC (6000 tons/5 yrs) would be >50x base Nb3Sn market Nb3Sn market is different from Nb-Ti; FCC demand would dominate

Projecting future costs Nb3Sn strand Potential cost reduction contributions: Raw materials: ? Market driven Incremental Conductor Improvement: ~10% Jc gain Efficiency gains from scale up of billet sizes Continued incremental piece length gains Together these may reduce $/kA-m cost by ~ ⅓ To cut the $/kA-m by ⅔ requires a more significant Jc gain Layer Jc increase could yield largest cost benefit- provided conductor fabrication cost is not increased cost elsewhere

Progress with Bi-2212 Larger billets (10 kg) New powder qualification As Drawn Wire Swaged Increasingly consistent properties billet to billet JE (16 T) now about ⅔ that of Nb3Sn strands Increasing core density to increase Jc

Cost: Opportunity in $/kA-m, Not Materials Silver No known alternatives, metals market dictates price 2212 fill factor limited to ~30% (already achieved) Powders Significant overhead costs dominate today Modest annual volumes do not drive cost reductions Production Scale Comparisons: Bi-2212 Internal Tin (w/o ITER) Internal Tin (For ITER) Nb-Ti (MRI) Approximate Billet Mass (kg) 10 30 60 400 Approximate Annual Market (tons) 0.01 10’s 100’s 1000’s

Summary (Jc– RRR –Deff) of today’s Nb3Sn is well optimized FCC requirements stretch beyond the state of the art Target Jc & RRR are “close” for Deff ~60 µm Basic R&D again required for Nb3Sn layer Jc breakthrough HEP-specific development requires sustained HEP “pull” And then, there’s cost… Scale up can help reduce cost, if demand is consistent Nb3Sn is not Nb-Ti; FCC would be the market Opportunities R&D today supports conductor in production 2025-2030 Layer Jc breakthrough (for free!) may solve cost challenge
