Lopez, G

Using the computer program SSC-DTAC-T, which is a modification of the quench computer program SSC-RR to model Jelly Roll coils, the quench behavior of the dipole corrector element (TAC design with Jelly Roll winding) is studied. The simulations are made as a function of the length of the magnet, the copper-to-superconducting ratio, and the thickness of insulation surrounding the wires. The magnet is self-protected with all listed considerations. In addition, this implies that other corrector multipoles (quadrupole, sextupole, octupole, etc.), which use the same conductor winding technique, are self-protected. A passive protection system should work for these elements. 9 refs., 18 figs., 1 tab.
