1. GRADING TECHNIQUES

The ideaThe map of the field inside a coil is strongly non-uniformIn a two layer configuration, the peak field is in the inner layer, and outer layer has systematically a lower fieldA higher current density can be put in the outer layer

How to realize itFirst option: use two different power supplies, one for the inner and one for the outer layer (not common)Second option: use a different cable for the outer layer, with a smaller cross-section, and put the same current (cheaper)

The inner and outer layer have a splice, and they share the same currentSince the outer layer cable has a smaller section, it has a higher current density

2. IRON YOKE - GENERICS

An iron yoke usually surrounds the collared coil – it has several functions

Keep the return magnetic flux close to the coils, thus avoiding fringe fieldsIn some cases the iron is partially or totally contributing to the mechanical structure

RHIC magnets: no collars, plastic spacers, iron holds the Lorentz forcesLHC dipole: very thick collars, iron give little contribution

Considerably enhance the field for a given current densityThe increase is relevant (10-30%), getting higher for thin coilsThis allows using lower currents, easing the protection

Increase the short sample fieldThe increase is small (a few percent) for “large” coils, but can be considerable for small widthsThis action is effective when we are far from reaching the asymptotic limit of B*

c2



2. IRON YOKE – WHAT THICKNESS

A rough estimate of the iron thickness necessary to avoid fields outside the magnet

The iron cannot withstand more than 2 T (see discussion on saturation, later)

Shielding condition for dipoles:

i.e., the iron thickness times 2 T is equal to the central field times the magnet aperture – One assumes that all the field lines in the aperture go through the iron (and not for instance through the collars)Example: in the LHC main dipole the iron thickness is 150 mm

2. IRON YOKE – IMAGE METHOD

The iron yoke contribution can be estimated analytically for simple geometries

Circular, non-saturated iron: image currents methodIron effect is equivalent to add to each current line a second one

at a distance

with current

Limit of the approximation: iron is not saturated (less than 2 T)

Remarks on the equations

When iron is not saturated, one has >>1 and then Since the image is far from the aperture,its impact on high order multipoles is smallThe impact of the iron is negligible for

Large coil widthsLarge collar widthsHigh order multipoles

The iron can be relevant forSmall coil widths, small collar widths, low order multipoles, main component

At most, iron can double the main component for a given current density (i.e. can give a =100%)

This happens for infinitesimally small coil and collar widths

2. IRON YOKE - DIPOLES

Impact of the iron yoke on dipole short sample field, Nb-Ti

The change of can be computed using the image current methodAssuming that the ratio peak field to central field does not change (this is true only as a first order approximation), one obtains

for c<<1 the increase in corresponds to the same increase in the short sample field (“small coils”)for c>>1 no increase in the short sample field (“large coils”)Please note that the “small” and “large” regimes depend on filling ratio and on the slope c of the critical surface

For the Nb3Sn one has to use the corresponding equationsPhenomenology is similar, but quantitatively different

2. IRON YOKE - SATURATION

Iron saturation: B-H curvefor B<2 T, one has >>1 (103-104), and the iron can give a relevant contribution to the field according to what discussed beforefor B>2 T, 1, and the iron becomes “transparent” (no effect on field)

2. IRON YOKE - SATURATION

Impact on calculationWhen iron saturates, the permeability varies in the iron according to the local field image current method cannot be applied, finite element method is needed (Poisson, Opera, Ansys, Roxie, …)

Impact on main component and multipolesThe main field is not current transfer function B/i drops of several (tens) of units (iron contribution gets reduced) Since the field in the iron has an azimuthal dependence, some parts of the iron can be saturated and others not variation of b3

Impact of yoke saturation in HERA dipole and quadrupoles,

From Schmuser, pg 58, fig. 4.12

40 units



2. IRON YOKE - OPTIMIZATION

Corrective actions: shaping the ironIn a dipole, the field is larger at the pole – over there, iron will saturate

The dependence on the azimuth of the field in the coil provokes different saturations, and a strong impact on multipole

One can optimize the shape of the iron to reduce these effects

Optimization of the position of holes (holes anyway needed for cryogenics) to minimize multipole changeRHIC is the most interesting case, since the iron gives a large contribution (50% to , i.e. to central field for a given current)

2. IRON YOKE - OPTIMAZATION

Corrective actions: shaping the iron – the RHIC dipoleThe field in the yoke is larger on the poleDrilling holes in the right places, one can reduce saturation of b3 from 40 units to less than 5 units (one order of magnitude), and to correct also b5

A similar approach has been used for the LHC dipoleLess contribution from the iron (20% only), but left-right asymmetries due to two-in-one design [S. Russenschuck, C. Vollinger, ….]

Another possibility is to shape the contour of the iron (elliptical and not circular)

3. COIL ENDS

Main features of the coil end design++Mechanical: find the shape that minimizes the strain in the

cable due to the bending (constant perimeter)In a cos magnet this strain can be large if the aperture is smallIn a racetrack design the cable is bent in the ‘right’ direction and therefore the strain is much lessIt is important to have codes to design the end spacers that best fit the ends, giving the best mechanical support – iteration with results of production sometimes is needed

End of a cos coil[S. Russenschuck e-book, Fig. 32.13] End spacers supporting the ends of a cos coil

[S. Russenschuck e-book, Fig. 32.13]



3. COIL ENDS

Main features of the coil end design+ Magnetic: find the shape that allows to avoid a higher field

in the endsDue to the coil return, the main field in the ends is enhanced (typically 10% ?)On the other hand, end are the most difficult parts to manufacture are the most unstable from a mechanical point of viewIt is wise to reduce the main field in the ends by adding spacers - this makes the design a bit more complicated

Simple coil end with increased field in P[Schmuser,pg. 58]

Coil end with spacers to decrease the main field in the end

[Schmuser,pg. 58]



3. COIL ENDS

Main features of the coil end design+/- Magnetic: take care of field quality

In general a coil end will give a non-negligible contribution to multipolesTwo possibilities

Leave it as it is and compensate the coil end with the straight part so that the multipoles integral over the magnet is optimal (cheap, simple)Optimize the end spacer positions to set to zero the integral multipoles in each the head (more elegant, complicated)

In the plot pseudo-multipoles are shown, extracted as Fourier coefficients

The scaling with the reference radius is not validThey are not unique – if you start from radial or tangential expression, Bx or By you getdifferent thingsThey give an idea of the behavior of the fieldharmonics, and way to get a compensation

The real 3d expansion can be written (see A. Jain, USPAS 2006 in Phoenix: “Harmonic description of 2D fields”, slide 4)Main field and pseudo-multipoles in coil end

optimized to have null integrated b3

CONCLUSIONS

Grading the current density in the layers can give a larger performance for the same amount of conductor

3-5% more in dipoles, 5-10% more in quadrupoles

The iron has several impactsUseful for shielding, can considerably increase the field for a given current – the impact on the performance is small but not negligibleDrawbacks: saturation, inducing field harmonics at high field – can be cured by shaping or drilling holes in the right place

Coil ends – the design must aim at reducing the peak field

Other lay-outs: pro and cons

We shown a gallery of dipole and quadrupole magnetic designs used in the past 30 years
