Finite Element Method (FEM) modeling of stability and current sharing in Nb3Sn Rutherford cables was performed. The modeled cables had 32 strands and they were three twist pitches long. Different values of contact resistances Ra and Rc were selected based on previous values extracted from ac loss measurements, as well as a set of design values. Current sharing was then projected for these...

The superconducting dipole magnet for the Compressed Baryonic Matter (CBM) experiment at FAIR houses the Silicon Tracking System (STS), and provides a magnetic field integral of 1 Tm which is needed to obtain a momentum resolution of Δp/p = 1% for track reconstruction at FAIR beam energies. The magnet gap has a height of 140 cm and a width of 250 cm in order to accommodate the STS with a polar...

The High Intensity Heavy Ion Accelerator Facility (HIAF) is a new engineering project proposed by Institute of Modern Physics of China. Superconducting magnets will be used as part of the accelerator magnets. When operating at fast-pulsed cycled mode, the superconducting cable will dissipate power (AC loss), which affects the stability of magnet. The main contribution of the AC losses in...

With extremely high critical current density (Jc) and excellent strain tolerance, Nb3Al superconductor is considered as an alternative to Nb3Sn for application of high-filed magnets. However, complexity in the phase formation of Nb3Al hinders the Nb3Al superconducting wires to satisfy the requirement of engineering applications at present. Here, we have reported the improved performance of...

National Institute for Fusion Science (NIFS) in Japan is considering about FFHR-d1 (Force Free Helical Reactor) for their future R&D project. Its magnet system will be needed a pair of helical typed coils with the major radius of 15.6 m. Since the maximum magnetic field on the helical coil of FFHR-d1 reaches 11.9 T, the NbTi cable is not applicable. The practical Nb3Sn cable was selected...

This work compared the phase structure and superconducting properties of RHQT Nb3Al wires fabricated by static and reel to reel (R2R) rapidly heating and quenching conditions. The time for static and dynamic heating of the wire is 0.8s and 0.4s. Rapid heating current (IRHQ) of 67A~69A for static RHQ and 120~122A for R2R dynamic RHQ can fabricated ductile precursor wires and obtain single phase...

In order to develop future particle colliders such as the HiLumi - Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) and the Future Circular Collider (FCC), high field superconducting Nb3Sn magnets are necessary. Following the winding, the conductor requires a heat treatment at 650 °C during which significant dimensional changes occur. If dimensional changes are not allowed by the tooling, mechanical stresses...

The advantages of superconducting Rutherford cables are that it can reduce the inductance and increase the stability of superconducting magnets. Due to its high critical field strength and high current carrying capacity Nb3Sn Rutherford cable is one of the best choices for making high field accelerator superconducting magnets. But Nb3Sn superconducting wire has poor mechanical properties and...
