Designing superconducting magnets presents a challenge due to their inherently multi-faceted nature. It requires a deep understanding of diverse physics domains and the integration of specialized tools. To streamline the design process, CEA-IRFU started developing ALESIA, a novel optimization and data management platform.
Our platform leverages advanced algorithms, including nonlinear...
Superconducting magnets have been extensively studied for their applications in advanced magnetic technologies, taking advantage of their capability to generate high current densities and strong magnetic fields. In the design of superconducting magnets for high field density, a key consideration is the characteristic critical current density, beyond which superconductivity is lost. A previous...
The demand for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) devices with low cost and reasonable weight continues to increase as applications keep requiring diverse fields of view (FOV). In response to this demand, research on open MRI employing permanent magnets has been actively pursued.
The use of permanent magnets eliminates the need for power consumption and cooling systems, making the setup...
Inspired by the Levitated Dipole Experiment (LDX), Openstar proposed replacing the LTS core magnet with an HTS magnet powered by flux pumps. Embedded flux pumps enable the HTS magnet to maintain a constant DC field similar to LTS magnets with persistent joints. However, due to the limited zero-field region within the magnet, optimizing the flux pump design is critical to achieving maximum...
