PERFORMANCE OF AN INTERNALLY COOLED SUPERCONDUCTING SOLENOID.

Author(s) : LUE J.W., MILLER J. R.

Summary

A SUPERCONDUCTING MAGNET CONSTRUCTED OF AN INTERNALLY COOLED SOLENOID WAS PRODUCED AND TESTED. RESULTS SHOWED THAT: (1) THIS MAGNET REACHED SHORT SAMPLE CRITICAL CURRENT LIMIT WITH NO TRAINING ; (2) NO DEGRADATION DUE TO STRAND MOTION IN FIELDS WAS APPARENT ; (3) IT CAN BE CHARGED AND DISCHARGED TO HIGH CURRENT DENSITIES AND HIGH FIELDS AT A FAST RATE ; (4) IT HAS REASONABLE STABILITY MARGIN ; (5) STABILITY MEASUREMENTS VERIFY THE SCALING RELATIONSHIP FOR A LIMITING CURRENT BELOW WHICH THERE IS SINGLE VALUED HIGH STABILITY MARGIN ; (6) IT IS NOT REALLY NECESSARY TO HAVE BULK HELIUM FLOW TO ENSURE HIGH STABILITY ; AND (7) VERY HIGH PULSE FIELD CHANGES CAN BE ACCOMODATED AS LONG AS THE ENERGY DEPOSITION IS WITHIN ITS STABILITY MARGIN.
