Abstract

The superconducting state stability in twisted multifilamentary wire is investigated. The case of varying transport current and transverse magnetic field is considered. It is shown that the current-carrying capacity Im of multifilamentary superconducting composites increases with the decrease of the twist pitch L and Im attains its maximum value at L less than some critical value Lc.
