Conduction Cold Termnial (CdCt).

Conduction (CDH)

  • Current: 2-15 kA
  • Coolant: Parasitic load

The CdCt is a conduction type which acts as the termination point for the input and output ends of a superconducting cable.

Operating entirely without HTS material, it manages the thermal load by utilizing the inherent cooling capacity of the cable terminations — commonly referred to as a parasitic heat load.

For enhanced thermal management, the CdCt can be configured with an optional internal heat exchanger (CL Type 3).

In addition to transferring the current, the design features a dedicated cryogenic port allowing the coolant to enter or leave the cable; for Type 2, this port is not intended to cool the terminal itself. This provides a robust termination solution for operating currents ranging from 2-15 kA and voltages from 400 VDC to 35 kVAC.
