Description

                                                  

CHATS AS 2019 will be held 9-12 July 2019, hosted by the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Mechatronics of the West Pomeranian University of Technology, Szczecin (WPUT) in collaboration with the The Henryk Niewodniczanski Institute of Nuclear Physics (IFJ), Polish Academy of Sciences, Krakow.

Objectives and Topics

CHATS-AS 2019 will be the 13th  in a series of international workshops that have followed the advancements in the state-of-the-art of modeling of superconducting systems, from cables to magnets and other devices used for power generation and transmission, fusion, high-energy physics as well as other applications. CHATS-AS is focused on novel principles and tools in engineering design and analysis of superconducting systems. The Workshop also aims at building bridges between modeling and experiments, in order to validate the sophisticated analysis tools available with proper data sets. The CHATS-AS 2019 welcomes contributions fitting this scope, with a particular interest in the following topics:

   -  Quench simulation and analysis for all classes of LTS and HTS magnets (e.g. accelerator, fusion, MRI/NMR, and other applications) and devices (e.g. power cables).

   -  Quench detection and protection of HTS magnets: novel concepts, models and experiments.

   -  Electro-mechanical modeling of Nb3Sn and HTS magnets.

   -  Multi-scale modeling of cables and magnets made of LTS and HTS materials, and their relation to the strand or short-sample performance.

   -  Simulation and optimization of large-scale superconducting and cryogenic systems, covering the combination of thermo-hydraulics, AC loss, current distribution, field quality, and operating margin calculations.

   -  Modeling in support of the design and development of cryocoolers, and conduction-cooled superconducting devices.

        Towards to Quench Limit Determination of Superconducting Magnet with use of Thermal-Electrical Analogy

        The superconducting magnets are an essential part of large particle accelerators. The superconductors used in winding the coils of these magnets are characterized by the critical surface determined by three parameters: the critical temperature (Tc), the critical current density (Jc) and the critical magnetic field (Bc). The energy deposited in the superconductors by the particles lost from the beam or coming from the experiment collision debris may heat up the conductor in the magnet coil and provoke the magnet to quench. The modern design of the superconducting accelerator magnets requires the thermal optimization at cryogenic conditions in terms of heat transfer from magnet coils to heat reservoir. The main challenge of the accelerators operating with the superconducting magnets is their protection against the energy deposits to the coils from the particles lost from the beam and determination of the energy limits at which beam should be dump from the accelerators in order to avoid the magnets quench.
        The thermo-electrical analogy was used to develop a model of the superconducting magnets which has been used to study the thermal behavior of magnet and to determine the limits of quench of the magnets for expected beam loss profiles. The developed Network Model was used for thermal analysis of LHC Nb-Ti magnets and for optimization of Nb3Sn quadrupole magnets developed for use in the LHC luminosity upgrade. The analysis focuses on the heat transfer from the superconductor to the heat exchanger through a multilayer structure of magnet made of solid elements and channels occupied by the normal fluid or the superfluid helium. The results of the simulation by means of the Network Model were validated with measurements. A different sources of heat were implemented (magnet quench heaters, Inner Heating Apparatus) in different configurations. All simulations showed a very good agreemnt with measurements and with expected accuracy. The sources of discrepancy between the results of the simulations and measurements were related to the thermal properties of materials used in simulatiions. The developed model was successfully implemented to study of the thermal behavior of the newly developed enhanced insulation and newly designed Nb3Sn magnets. The future development of the model is foreseen by the design of a dedicated module which will introduce the energy deposits compatibile with the LHC beam pattern as well as module to study the transient mode.
