What is BS EN 61788-11 – Residual resistance ratio about?
BS EN 61788-11 is a European standard on superconductivity that offers various possibilities for the realization of sensing and detection of a variety of measurands.
BS EN 61788-11 covers a test method for the determination of the residual resistance ratio (RRR) of Nb3Sn composite superconductors. This method mentioned in BS EN 61788-11 is intended for use with superconductor specimens that have a monolithic structure with a rectangular or round cross-section, RRR less than 350 and cross-sectional area less than 3 mm2, and have received a reaction heat-treatment.
Who is BS EN 61788-11 - Residual resistance ratio for?
BS EN 61788-11 on residual resistance ratio is relevant to:
- Superconducting device manufacturers
- Product design engineers
- Technical experts
- Entities involved electrical and magnetic measurements
- Electrical engineers
- Electronics industry
Why should you use BS EN 61788-11 - Residual resistance ratio?
Superconductivity is the ability of certain materials to conduct electric current with practically zero resistance. In this regard, RRR is the ratio of resistance at room temperature to resistance just above the superconducting transition.
BS EN 61788-11 provides you with requirements, apparatus, specimen preparation, data acquisition and analysis, uncertainty, and stability of the test method with a test report that significantly influences the performance of superconductors.
Overall BS EN 61788-11 can be your guide to ensure that superconductors offers high performance for time response as per their properties like density, dimensions, and temperatures which is beneficial for product end-users.
