Lessons: Coil Parts • Nb3Sn Rutherford cable • Stainless steel core reduces eddy current effects • Limited compaction reduces mechanical stability • Winding tooling and process development • Braiding S2-glass over Mica-sleeve works well • End parts • SLS cost effective, flexible, and fast way of producing fully functional parts • 3-5 iterations required to get the shapes right, all manual modifications shall be minimised • Rigid metallic parts need features to make the “legs” flexible (“springy legs”, “accordeon”,..) • Dielectric coatings to develop: reactor paint, sputtering, plasma coating, .. • Epoxy-glass saddles (electrical insulation, softer for cable tails/splice, axial loading) • ODS wedges to minimise plastic deformation and distortion of the coil geometry M. Karppinen CERN TE-MSC
Lessons: Coil Fabrication • Min 3 Practice coils: Cu-cable, 2 X Nb3Sn • Mirror test to qualify coil technology • Tooling design • Modular tooling for easy scale-up • Understand (= measure) coil dimensional changes • Tight manufacturing tolerances require high precision quality control • Material selection and heat treatments (reaction tool) • First design the impregnation tool then reaction tool • Coil inspection: • E-modulus risky to measure • High modulus (wrt. Nb-Ti) means tight tolerances and require accurate dimensional control with CMM • Assembly parameter definition based on CMM data can be tricky.. M. Karppinen CERN TE-MSC
To Develop: Heaters & Splicing • Outer layer heaters • Heaters and V-tap wiring integrated in polymidesandwich (“trace”) made as PCB • may not be enough to guarantee safe operation with redundancy • Inner layer “trace” difficult to bond reliably • Inter-layer heaters • Very efficient heat transfer to coils • Reaction resistant glass-Mica-St.St-Mica-glass sandwich • “Conventional” heaters with I-L splice • Inter-layer splice (within the coil i.e. high field) • Bring inner layer lead radially out and splice • Nb3Sn bridge (MSUT concept) • HTS bridge M.
