Double pancakes (DPs) for a Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage (SMES) coil have been developed using MgB 2 Rutherford type superconductors. The DPs with 400 mm ID and about 600 mm OD were wound with Rutherford type conductors cabled by twisting multi-filamentary MgB 2 strands. For use in an ind...
