CONDUCTOR MOTION IN THE SUPERCONDUCTING MAGNET.

Author(s) : IWASA Y.

Summary

CONDUCTOR MOTION IN THE SUPERCONDUCTING MAGNET AND ITS EFFECT ON MAGNET PERFORMANCE IS DISCUSSED, FOCUSING ON RECENT WORK PERFORMED AT THE FRANCIS BITTER NATIONAL MAGNET LABORATORY, MIT. A COMBINED TECHNIQUE OF VOLTAGE AND ACOUSTIC EMISSION MEASUREMENTS PERMITS DETAILED EXAMINATION OF CONDUCTOR MOTION EVENTS, INCLUDING THOSE OF A MICROSCOPIC SCALE. FLEXIBLE CONDUCTORS SUCH AS BRAIDS ARE MOST SUSCEPTIBLE TO QUENCH INDUCED BY CONDUCTOR MOTION BECAUSE OF HIGH DENSITY POWER DISSIPATION THAT RESULTS FROM SUCH MOTION. STIFF CONDUCTORS SUCH AS THE RUTHERFORD TYPE AND MONOLITHS ARE SUPERIOR IN THIS REGARD.
