  1. Magnetic Measurementsfor PACMAN Marco Buzio, TE/MSC/MM Contents 1 – Rotating coils 2 –Stretched wire

  2. Main PACMAN WP 2.2 goal Development of a rotating coil system (single scanning coil and/or coil train) integrated on the PACMAN test stand in bldg. 169 and aimed at field quality (strength, harmonics, direction) measurements of CLIC quadrupoles. Magnetic measurement of the axis: if possible absolute, otherwise in relative (fixed-coil) mode with ultra-high bandwidth and resolution.This implies, within the 3-years span: a dedicated FAME system with an optimized PCB coil(s), FDI, FFMM script etc…. Metrological qualification, cross-checks with other instruments, with documented calibration and test procedures

  3. Search coils • Workhorse of CERN instrumentation park: most accurate and cost-effective method • Size, effective surface, number of turns, resistance, assemblies … must be adapted to the specific requirements of each magnet  no commercial solution, in-house R&D • Main parameter: total area exposed to flux change Ac, which determines the peakinduced voltage (limited by electronics, typically 5 or  10 V) fixed-coil,time-varying field coil rotating, translatingor deforming (wire) Faraday’s law (total derivative) Fixed coil in a time-varying field Coil rotating at angular speed  in stationary, uniform field Coil translating at speed v in stationary field with gradientB

  4. Rotating coils • Rotating coils: yield simultaneously field strength, quality (harmonics), direction and center 2D ideal rectangular rotating coil geometry integration constant: lost with fixed coil measurements,irrelevant (unphysical) for rotating coils integration boundsset by precise angular encoder rotation speed fluctuationshave negligible effects measured flux depends on both the fieldand coil geometry Discrete sampling of flux → Fourier components → field harmonics

  5. Rotating coil types • Tangential coils: • higher signal for the same area (on the boundary of the convergence circle) • blind spot, difficult to align precisely • Radial coils • easier to build and to calibrate • sensitive to all harmonics

  6. Coil sensitivity factors • All coefficients can be calculated from coil length L, width w and radius R0 • All coefficients proportional to total coil area Ac=NTLw • All coefficents increase like radius R0n-1 NB: calibration coefficients can be used at any field level – inherently linear sensor However: S/N at calibration gets better at high field

  7. Why is it difficult to measure small-aperture magnets ? e.g.: radial coil, n>1 • general problem: static and dynamic deformations, vibrations, alignment, temperature drifts are more difficult to control • Mechanical manufacturing tolerances are fixed=f(tooling) → coil sensitivity coefficient uncertainty 1/r (r=outer rotation radius) • the number of turns available for coils (→ signal level)  r2 • Signal level grow with linked flux variation →  rn-1 (e.g. radial coil), rn (stretched wire)(field/gradient strength, rotation/translation speed, length, etc. being equal) S/N ratio for quadrupole measurement may vary with r3 r4 …. BUT: small magnets are easier to flip around …

  8. Coil bucking • The accuracy of higher harmonics measured by individual coils may be affected by geometry errors • Solution = coil bucking (or compensation): suitable linear combinations of coil signals cancel out the sensitivity to the main (and lower) harmonics  robustness to mechanical imperfections • Example: in a perfect quadrupole, average gravity-induced sag on a radial coil  flux error including mainly B1 and B3 components. A four-coil series/anti-series combination cancels out B2 sensitivity  error-free harmonic measurement B A d C D () ideal geometry(no sag) C A • Arbitrary static coil imperfections cause no concern (effective sensitivities can be calibrated) • Position- or time-dependent transversal imperfectionserrors  harmonic n=main order • Position- or time-dependent torsional imperfections errors  harmonic n=main order -1 • Coil design objective: main=main-1=0, maximize |n| with n>main order • Additional benefit: common mode rejection, improved S/N (requires separate amplification) flux error()(zoomed) sag-inducedvertical eccentricity B D

  9. Effective coil width • The flux corresponding to a given coil position can be obtained in various ways (flipping or rotating the coil, pulsing the field from zero) • L can be considered as known from mechanical measurements • General case: unless B(s) or w(s) are constant and can be taken out of the integral sign, the flux cannot be obtained from average width and average field: • Define: effective width (NT gets lumped in for convenience) = average of width weighted with the field considerations made here for a dipole field hold true for other components as well

  10. Linac4 harmonic coil test bench • Developed for small-aperture Linac4 permanent-magnet and fast-pulsed quads • Æ19 mm, 200~400 mm long quadrupole-bucked coils (difficult measurement: S/N µÆaperture3 !) • Harmonic measurements in DC (continuously rotating coil) or fast-pulsed (stepwise rotating) mode. • small size  flipping the magnet around allows elimination of many systematic errors • in-situ calibration technique to improve accuracy despite geometrical coil imperfections

  11. Innovative miniature coils for CLIC quadrupoles CLIC QD0 prototype 64-layer PCB stack 3-coil dipole- and quadrupole- bucked arraycan be chained to measure long magnets at once

  12. PCB coil-related R&D themes • general improvement of multi-layer PCB coils: track density (currently only ~1/3 of conventional coils), layer referencing and alignment (currently ~0.1 mm) • optimization of track layout to minimize sensitivity to production errors • improvement of the existing 8 mm rotating PCB coil shaft: mechanical stiffness of the assembly (materials, geometry, resins …), alignment and stability of ball bearings, scaling above and below 8 mm (e.g. is it possible 4 mm for CLIC, 20 mm for Linac magnets, or even more ?) • development (as suggested by Stephan) of a more compact Mini Rotating Unit MRU-II, i.e. about 10-12 contacts instead of the current 76, better adapted to small coils, with less angular vibrations • PCB-based quench antennas (with compensation) • micro PCB connectors for multi-strand wire coils (as suggested by Olaf, to replace the existing micro-soldered connectors that only Lucette knows how to make) • large scale PCB fluxmeters: upper limits of current printing, pressing and assembly techniques + new possibilities offered by ELTOS; alternative architectures e.g. multiple mass-produced short boards + suitable inter-board connections • quality assurance of PCB fluxmeters: AC measurement of coil width, R/L measurement, calibration of magnetic equivalent coil area and coil distance inside reference magnets • micron-level precision coils for high order analog bucking (e.g. integrated circuit - scale fluxmeters) • Joe di Marco-style, polyvalent PCB sandwich coil shaft (flexible design, may be very practical for very large diameter rotating systems). Advanced materials (foams, honeycombs etc … for higher stiffness-to-weight ratio) • electronic acquisition systems: correction of side effects of high resistance load coils (input impedances, automatic resistance measurement and off-line correction, noise and offsets) • software tool to facilitate the design of new PCB coils, bypassing traditional CAD: from geometry specifications (e.g. straight/arc/straight or more realistic continuously varying curve)  layer design  Gerber format file • other techniques alternative to PCB: circuits printed on flexible rolls, inkjet circuit printers

  13. Single Stretched Wire B stage A stage Reference quadrupole

  14. Classical Single Stretched Wire • DC operation: nominal fieldlevel • AC operation: enhanced sensitivity at very low field levels (e.g. 1 A in LHC cryomagnets),elimination of DC offset (stray fields, remanent …) S0, pitch, yaw iterativeaxis finding field harmonics Gxdy, Gydxfield direction (roll)

  15. A stage B stage As tension measurement is affected by friction problems and gauge accuracy, the SSW system measures the fundamental frequency of the wire, which depends uponh its mechanical properties
