چکیده
A quench detection system was developed for protecting and monitoring the superconducting solenoids Muon-to-Electron Conversion Experiment (Mu2e) at Fermilab. The designed a high level of dependability long-term continuous operation. It is based on three tiers: Tier-I, FPGA-based Digital Quench Detection (DQD); Tier-II, Analog (AQD); Tier-3, controls data management system. Tier-I Tier-II are completely independent fully redundant systems. Tier-3 National Instruments (NI) C-RIO provides user interface management. from Tiers I & II. DQD both characterization (monitoring) capability. Both AQD have built-in voltage isolation programmable gains attenuations. also includes configured current dependent thresholding validation times. 1st article three-tier implemented new Fermilab magnet test stand HL-LHC Accelerator Up-grade Project (AUP). successfully provided protection (QPM) cold bus in November 2020. Mu2e design has since been production testing AUP magnets. detailed description along with results will be presented.

Superconducting materials for magnets will be discussed from three viewpoints: firstly the basic physical properties of the materials themselves, secondly the constraints and preferences imposed by the requirements of magnet building and finally, the manufacture of magnet conductors as a commercial product.
متن کاملInfluence of Protection Circuit on Quench Characteristics for Clinical MRI Superconducting Magnets
Introduction MRI technology utilizes highly sophisticated superconducting (SC) magnet technology. During the prototyping of the SC MRI magnet, quenching (i.e., catastrophic helium evaporation and complete loss of liquid helium) can often occur. Therefore, a reliable quench analysis is very important for the development of SCMRI magnets. However, it is difficult to accurately model quench charac...
