✦ Synopsis

Certain characteristics in magnetic field dependences of critical current densities (Jc) for the Ag-sheathed Bi-2223 superconducting tape have been found. One property regards the direction of the magnetic field applied to the tape. Both arc values in the field, applied parallel and perpendicular to the tape surface, are on an identical curve when the magnitude of field (B), applied parallel to the tape surface, is multiplied by a characteristic coefficient, which relates to the grain alignment of each tape. Another concerns the relationship between Jc and the magnitude of the field. The Jc is expressed by a simple logarithmic function of B (log(B)) from a very low field to a high field. This relation is applicable within a wide temperature range.
