Abstract

This study investigates the microstructure and thermal performance of Cu-Nb microcomposite conductors welded using various techniques, including thermite welding, laser welding, electron beam welding, and pressure welding with a strong magnetic field. The goal was to assess how different welding methods impact the microstructure and temperature distribution of the welded joints. Temperature distribution across all welding methods met the standards for electrical contact joints, ensuring reliable performance. Cu-Nb microcomposite conductors, with their exceptional strength and conductivity, are highly suitable for high-performance magnetic field applications. The findings provide valuable insights for optimizing welding processes, contributing to advancements in welding technology and material science.

Keywords: Cu-Nb Microcomposite Conductors, Welding Techniques, Electrical Contact Joints
