Thermal behaviour and cryogenic performance of the first CERN-INFN prototype dipole cryomagnet for the CERN LHC Project.

Summary

The first 10-m long LHC prototype dipole magnet produced in industry has been mounted on the measurement test bench and operated at 1.8 K in a static bath of pressurized helium II. During tests its thermo-mechanical and cryogenic behaviour has been measured. The cooldown under different conditions, the resulting temperature gradients and the thermo-hydraulic consequences of resistive transitions have been investigated.
