โฆ Synopsis
When a superconductor switches from a superconducting to a normal state, the current will move out of the superconductor and redistribute itself in the stabilizer. To study this current diffusion phenomenon in the conductor, a separation of variables method is used to solve directly the current diffusion equation for a rectangular composite conductor. The average power generation over the conductor cross-section is obtained based on the calculated current density profile. An excess power generation term is found during the transition period that decays exponentially with time. Finally, a comparison between this approach and the Dewed solution shows a good agreement.
