* Fresca2 not expected to quench. During energy extraction there may be quench-back distributed across the magnet

* Feather2 mutual inductance calculation may be worst-case because it does not include the copper rings

* Preliminary tests: may be better to do in increasing IxB order. Add overlay with expected IxB

* also look at maximum expected voltage, voltage difference

14:10 → 14:25 TU simulations

Speakers: Janne Ruuskanen (Tampere University of Technology), Tiina-Mari Salmi (Helsinki Institute of Physics (FI))

* Model is ready but no resources to run it during the next week

* Simulation case 5: extraction at high current (9 kA Feather2, 10.6 kA Fresca2): high currents in copper rings heat up Feather2. Feather2 current dumps very fast compared to standalone

* Current peak in Fresca2 not visible in the plots, will be checked

14:25 → 14:40 CERN calculations

Speakers: Glyn Kirby (CERN), Thomas Nes (Twente Technical University (NL))

14:40 → 15:00 Discussion
