• Goal: 32 T Magnet Project: User magnet – 32 T, 32 mm bore, 500 ppm over 10 mm DSV, 1 hour to full field, dilution refrigerator <20 m. K for installation in TLH • Funding: – $2 M grant from NSF for LTS coils, cryostat, YBCO tape & other components of magnet system – Core grant for development of necessary technology – Source of funds for dil fridge not known YBCO Nb 3 Sn • Staffing: – >10. 3 FTE’s to date in 2010 • Key Personnel – Denis Markiewicz, NHMFL: PI, Magnet Development – David Larbalestier, NHMFL: co-PI, SC Materials – Stephen Julian, Univ. of Toronto: co-PI, Science Nb. Ti
32 T Approach • Commercial Supply: – 15 T, 250 mm bore Nb 3 Sn/Nb. Ti “outsert” – cryostat • In-House development: – – – 17 T, 34 mm bore YBCO coils YBCO tape characterization & quality check Tape insulation technology Coil winding technology Joint technology Quench analysis & protection ~20 x mass increase YBCO coils for 32 T YBCO coils built to date High-B coils 31 T + DB Demonstration inserts 20 T+ DB High Hoop-stress coils >700 MPa

Conductor Characterization • Have all the short sample and coil characterization capability we expect to need • Provide feedback to manufacturers • Responsive • SP has “locked in” production process for while: maximizes predictability • Considering buying/developing long length (end-end) characterization as quality verification tool (2011) • Electrical properties • – Current carrying capacity versus B and B-angle to > 30 T Mechanical : – s-e at 300 K, 77 K, 4. 2 K • • • Conductor as-is and joints Magneto-Optical and microscopic Short-turnaround feedback to 32 T project and manufacturers (Super. Power (SP) and Am. SC) – To steer commercial conductor development – Regular meetings/conference calls with SP Considering options for end-end characterization for quality verification – Via magnetization State-of-the-art electronics for coil characterization, quench detection. Very comprehensive capability with combined MS&T and ASC resources
Coil winding: Pancake versus layer winding • • 8 NHMFL built test coils (since 2008) + 2 SP • 32 T will be made using pancakes • • • Different approaches – Pancake stacks, layer wound, – Dry wound, wet-wound, VPI, – Varnish insulation, silk-paper + glass fiber High-field coils (3) High-stress coils (3) Quench-study coils (1) Prototype 32 T double pancake coils in preparation Support testing of HTS coils from other institutions – Super. Power, – 40 T with Particle Beams Limited & BNL –. . – Unless unexpected showstopper presents itself – Schedule gain will compensate for extended test coil phase (D. Markiewicz) (Super. Power) (U. P. Trociewitz) (D. Markiewicz) (U. P. Trociewitz) Unparalleled access to magnets and equipment Experience with HTS coils since 1993, SC tape magnets (even for NMR) since 80 -ies
Insulation Development • Pursuing five different approaches • None are proven to give all we want • for pancake and layer winding • Down-selecting pancake winding bypasses biggest issue (edge coverage) • • • GE varnish dip and spray lines developed UV-cured epoxies (in-house development and collaboration with IRL New Zealand). – Mica additions to affect thixotropic rheological properties Shrink-tubing Silk paper and co-wound glass fiber thread Alumina PVD coating in collaboration with industry (UES Inc. ) Advanced Polymers, Inc. The cathodic arc Al 2 O 3 deposition system at UES Inc. Paper and glass fiber thread insulated REBCO layer wound winding pack Wall Thickness: 0. 15 – 4. 00 mil Temperature Range: Melting Point: 508 K Tensile Strength: Dielectric Strength: 77 – 408 K 50000 psi >4000 V/mil Axim Mica, Inc. The prototype UV-cured insulation coating system developed at the NHMFL Both polymer and ceramic insulations are being vigorously pursued
