A superconducting coil device includes a superconducting flat conductor having one or more torsional turns. The flat conductor is wound around a winding support to define multiple turns of the conductor around the support. In at least one of the turns, the flat conductor is twisted through approximately 180 degrees about a longitudinal axis of the flat conductor, to thereby switch a contact side of the flat conductor from radially inwardly facing to radially outwardly facing, or vice versa. The contact side of the flat conductor at an inner turn faces a center of the winding and, and at an outer turn faces away from the center of the winding. The inwardly-facing contact side of the strip at an inner turn may be coupled to an inner contact element, and the outwardly-facing contact side at an outer turn may be conductively coupled to an outer contact element.

Superconducting coil device with coil winding and production method

The superconducting winding () is configured such that it has a band-shaped HTS conductor () of the R&#xf6;bel-conductor type, made of band-shaped HTS individual conductors that are transposed among each other. An armoring band () is to be wound to the prefabricated HTS conductor (), the band not being metallurgically connected to the HTS conductor () and being subject to a comparatively larger winding tension (WZ). The armoring band () is wound at a winding tension (WZ) that is at least 1.5 times, preferably at least 3 times as large as the winding tension (WZ) of the HTS conductor ().
