The Central Solenoid Model Coil (CSMC) of the China Fusion Engineering Test Reactor (CFETR) is currently in the manufacturing process. After the manufacturing completed, the CSMC will be test on the testing platform. This platform consists of several subsystems, in order to keep the system safe and to avoid any failure possible to damage CSMC magnet during the experiment, we have designed the...
Superconducting magnets at CERN are being tested in one of the largest testing facilities around the world known as SM18. The test facility is equipped with ten horizontal test benches, five vertical cryostats and a cryogenic feed box allowing to test the superconducting link in He gas. This unique infrastructure requires a well-designed and optimized quality assurance and control system to...
The HEPdipo magnet is being designed within a collaboration among CERN, EPFL-SPC, F4E and LBNL. The goal is to provide, with a background field of 15 T, the capability of testing insert coils and cables for high energy physics and fusion applications at variable temperature.
The target field of 15 T is generated at 4.2 K over a bore aperture of 144 mm × 94 mm and a length of about 1 m. The...
“China Fusion Engineering Test Reactor (CFETR)” is a new generation of tokamak which aims to bridge the gaps between the fusion experimental reactor ITER and the demonstration reactor (DEMO). The superconducting magnet system is the core component in tokamak and future fusion reactor, and the superconducting magnet system for CFETR will be a big challenge due to the higher magnetic field is...
A versatile facility capable of providing cryogenic-electro-magnetic multifields had been successfully constructed for investigating the field-dependent and mechanical properties of superconducting wires and tapes at Lanzhou University, China. It can generate a 3.5T transverse background field, and continuous variations of temperature (4 to 77K, ~5K/min) and transport current (0 to 700 A,...
