Title: Iron yoke eddy current induced losses with application to the ALS septum magnets

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/10179448· OSTI ID:10179448

The theoretical development of relations governing the eddy current induced losses in iron electromagnet yokes is reviewed. A baseline laminated electromagnet design is analyzed and a parametric study illustrates the sensitivity of core losses to perturbations of various geometrical, material, and excitation parameters. Core losses and field gradients for the ALS septum magnets are calculated. Design modifications capable of eliminating transverse and longitudinal field gradients are discussed.
