 AC self-field energy losses, in multifilamentary BSCCO-2223 silver cladded tapes, as a function of the transport current amplitude and applied external magnetic field, are reported. The measurements were carried out at 77K and at frequency of 60Hz. The AC transport current through the tape, below its DC critical current value were kept constant, while rotating the external magnetic field. Also, in a similar way, DC critical current angular characteristics were measured. The transport losses, as a function of the angle and the magnetic field values are compared with theoretical models for the self-field losses and anisotropy of critical current density in layered superconductors.
