North American construction is back—smaller and faster—at OPG’s Darlington
“The nuclear renaissance is real here,” said Ontario Power Generation’s Subo Sinnathamby on May 8, one year to the day after OPG secured a final investment decision to build the first of four planned BWRX-300 reactors at its Darlington nuclear power plant, and shortly after the new reactor’s foundation was lifted into place. “We got our license to construct in April and our [final investment decision] in May, and we’ve been off to the races since.”

Cable-in-conduit superconductors are considered as a conductor for future helical devices. A cable-in-conduit superconductor consists of multi-strand cable and conduit. The stability of multi-strand superconducting cable is investigated in consideration of the current redistribution between strands. We studied basically the current redistribution phenomena in two-strand cable by experiment, and have developed the numerical method to simulate the current redistribution phenomena of the cable. As a result of a numerical analysis, it was found that the current redistribution phenomena depend on coolant conditions. In this paper, effects of the coolant condition on the current redistribution phenomena and the stability of the superconducting cable will be discussed.
