 note = {0000-0003-1454-8117, The conductor for helical coils of the Large Helical Device consists of a Rutherford-type NbTi/Cu cable, a pure aluminum stabilizer, and a copper sheath. The dimensions of the conductor and the stabilizer cross-sections are 18.0 mm × 12.5 mm and 12.4 mm × 5.2 mm, respectively. The measured cold-end recovery current in the magnetic field parallel to the shorter side (B//12.5) is clearly lower than that in the field parallel to the longer side (B//18.0) because of the difference in magnetoresistance by Hall currents. Since the minimum propagation current Imp is important to determine the upper limit of operation current, Imp has been measured for two types of one-turn coil samples, which were bent flatwise (B//18.0) and edgewise (B//12.5) with the inner radius of 0.14 m to extend the length in the uniform background field of the test facility. The measured Imp at B//12.5 is almost the same as that at B//18.0 in spite of the large difference in the steady-state resistance. Imp is considered to be determined by the heat balance before the current diffuses deeply into the stabilizer.},
