Stored Magnetic Energy
LHC dipole magnet (twin apertures)
E = ½ LI2
L = 0.12H
I = 11.5kA
E = 7.8 x 106 Joules
the magnet weighs 26 tonnes
so the magnetic stored energy is equivalent to the kinetic energy of:
26 tonnes travelling at 88km/hr

In 2003:
About 15…20% of all cold tested magnets
have isolation problems. They can (with
some exceptions) not be used in the tunnel.
Why are these faults not detected earlier in the
manufacturing?
Reason 1: The faults are produced during cool
(heater, omega)
down.
Reason 2: It is difficult, because we use
Helium or
measure lousy transmission
lines.
In 2008:
Not all were found during the tests!!!

Back to the basics
Consider a superconductor, already immersed in LHe:
Kamerlingh Onnes liquifies for the first
time (1908) Helium and studies the
temperature dependence of the electrical
resistance of metals. (1911)
Below a critical temperature
the resistance (voltage drop)
seems to disappear. He calls
the phenomenon
“Superconductivity”.
Nobel Price in 1913

Critical Temperature, Meissner Ochsenfeld
Low temperature superconductivity is due
Critical Field Bc:
to a phase transition. Phase transitions

momenta and spin form a macroscopic (nm)
boson, the Cooper Pair.
The binding energy determines the critical
temperature.
Critical Temperature qc

where kB = 1.38
J/K is the
Boltzmann's constant
and (0) is the energy gap
(binding energy of Cooper pairs)

10-23
19
The thermodynamic energy due to
superconductivity Gsup increases with
the magnetic energy, which is expelled
i.e. with B2
Gsup reaches Gnormal at the maximal field
Bc, which is small. (~0.2 T)
Type 1 superconductors are useless for magnets!
London Penetration depth, Coherence Length
•Very thin (<) slabs do not expel the field completely. Hence less
energy needed.
•Thick slabs should subdivide to lower the energy.
•But we pay in Cooper pair condensation energy to build sc boundaries of
thickness energy .
•We gain due to the not expelled magnetic energy in the penetration depth

The upper critical field is reached, when all fluxoid touch.
Bc2=0/(22).
Hence, good superconductors are always bad conductors (short
free path).
Type 2 Superconductors are mostly alloys.
Transport current creates a gradient in the fluxoid pattern.
Fluxoids must be movable to do that. However not too much,
otherwise the field decays …..
Here starts the black magic.
Current Density
The current (density) depends on
the field and on the temperature
and is a property of the sample.

How to keep the temperature down?
High temperature results in:
Movement, friction
Insulation damage
Magnet destruction
•Keep the MIITS down by Heatcapacity and Resistivity (too late now)
•Keep the MIITS down by shortening the current flow
•Increase the bulk resistivity (Heating, spread the energy)
•Fast, complicated, energy into He
•Bypass the energy of the rest of the sector (if applicable)
using Diodes or Resistors
•Using Resistors <= Attention, introduces a time delay L/R
and Quench back
30
•Extract the energy (External Resistors and Switches)
•Slow, energy into air/water, needed to protect the diodes
Voltage
High resistance means
and
high I*R
high L*dI/dt
High voltage is dangerous for the insulation
Local damage => ground short or winding short
Global damage => Diodes reverse voltage
Voltage taps
Overvoltage can be/ can develop to be a global phenomenon.
Can cause considerable damage.

• The break down voltage of air is 6 * bigger than that
of He.
• Tests at elevated voltages run into problems at other
spots.
• Magnets that have seen Helium, may not be tested
again at “air voltages”.
• Voltages during operation (quench) may be locally
higher than can be applied globally. Interturn shorts
are particularly difficult.
• We have observed problems with the heater strips.

•
Divide et impera!
Treat sectors separately!
Detect resistive the transistion asap
Divide the energy in a magnet over many windings, using
heaters (if necessary).
• Guide the energy of all other 153 (or so) magnets around
using a diode or resistor.
• Protect the diode by a fast extraction of the energy.
