ReBCO coated conductors have been used in high-field magnets in excess of 30 T. Such devices are usually operated in quasi-steady state, where the magnetic field and current change only slowly. However, ReBCO coated conductors are also being considered for use in higher-frequency applications such as rotating machines, linear motors, electric aircraft and fast-cycling synchrotrons. Most ReBCO...
In the manufacture of semi-finished metal products, metal billets need to be annealed at temperatures up to 1100°C in order to soften the materials for further forming. The annealing process can be performed in conventional furnaces using fossil fuels or by induction heating. The advantage of induction heating is a higher efficiency, shorter heating times and a better temperature homogeneity...
The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) is a scientific user facility under the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science (DOE-SC) and an independent scientific user organization of approximately 1,800 researchers. The High Rigidity Spectrometer (HRS) will be the centerpiece experimental tool of the FRIB fast-beam program, enabling experiments with the most exotic, neutron-rich nuclei...
In older to explore charm physics and tau physics in next decades, a third-generation circular electron-positron collider Super Tau-Charm Facility (STCF) with the energy range of 2-7 GeV is being developed and pre-studied in University of Science and Technology of China. As the last correction of the particles before the collision, the superconducting magnets in the interaction region (IR)...
All-superconducting high-field magnets are in high demand across various scientific disciplines, including large-scale science devices, materials science, and biology. They play a crucial role in researching material properties, the origin of life, and disease prevention and treatment. These magnets offer significant advantages, such as compact size, low power consumption, flexibility, and...
In this work, we performed numerical studies of a quench protection system relevant to MgB2 based 3T conduction cooled magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machines using a lumped parameter model in Open Modelica. Our initial approach was similar to the CLIQ scheme, which we modelled for one coil (OD 901 mm, winding pack 44 mm thick×50.6 mm high, conduction-cooled, react-and-wind, with 1.7 km of...
