Development and Test of a Large Aperture $$Nb_3Sn$$ Cos-Theta Dipole Coil with Stress Management
- Fermilab
An innovative stress-management (SM) concept for cos-theta (CT) coils (SMCT coil concept) has been proposed at Fermilab. A large-aperture two-layer Nb3Sn SMCT dipole coil was designed and manufactured to validate and test the SM concept including coil design, fabrication technology, and performance. The first large-aperture SMCT coil (SMCT1) was fabricated and assembled with a small-aperture Nb3Sn coil inside a dipole mirror magnet. SMCT1 coil tests in a dipole mirror structure was performed in two configurations - SMCTM1a with only powered two-layer SMCT1 coil and SMCTM1b with the SMCT coil connected in series with an inner two-layer dipole coil. The test goals are to prove the SMCT coil concept in two-layer and four-layer mirror configurations; demonstrate that the magnet can reach the targeted quench current at the established preload; study magnet training, training memory after thermal cycle, ramp rate and temperature dependences of the magnet quench current; and test the SMCT1 coil quench protection parameters. This paper summarizes the SMCT1 coil design and parameters, the coil main fabrication steps, its assembly in the dipole mirror structure. The results of the SMCTM1a/b mirror test are presented and discussed.
