Canted Cosine Theta MCXB – Design Option 28-01-2013 J. Van Nugteren, G. de Rijk and G. Kirby
MCXB • Corrector dipole with steerable field direction • 2 nested dipoles generate enormous Torque • CCT should take forces from windings effectively • Requirements • 150 mm bore, pre-existing cable • Operating at 50% Ic • Need designs for 1.5 Tm and 4 Tm • Approx1 and 2 m long respectively • Look at Vertical and Horizontal field • V2H2 1.5 Tm / 4.0 Tm • V4H4 1.5 Tm / 4.0 Tm • Decided to focus mainly on 1.5 Tm V2H2 V4H4
A bit of Background • Idea originates from 1969 [1] • Two nested canted solenoids • Axial field components cancel • Dipolar field components add up • Visit ShlomoCaspi LBNL before Christmas • Sparked renewed interest in CCT design • Why now? • Advancements in Rapid Prototyping • Advancements in Computing Cos-Theta [1] Block CCT [1] D. Meyer and R. Flasck, A new configuration for a dipole magnet for use in high energy physics applications, Nuclear Instruments and Methods, no. 80, pp. 339-341, 1970.
Terminology • Repeating pattern (slice) • Coil consists of three basic parts • Spar • Ribs • Cable • Definition of parameters Former
Terminology • Pitch length • Packing factor
Pre-Existing Cable For the designs a pre-existing (MCXB) NbTi cable is available Used Bottura scaling relation for LHC grade conductor Comparing fits: 100% 90% 80% 70% 60% 50% *taken from presentation Mikko 2010
What layer on Which Former? To optimally transfer Torque one Vertical and one Horizontal layer on each former A and B represents the direction of the spiral For insulation between the layers this is not ideal Right now assumed VA-HB-VB-HA layout Pattern can be repeated from here … H-A Former V-B In reality cables under angle H-B Former V-A …

Skew Angle Influence Ratio Bpeak/Bcen depends on skew angle and # of layers α V2 V4 Without Iron
Field Integral Optimization • Two counteracting processes • Higher skew angle increases Bpeak/Bcen • Lower skew angle increases length of coil ends • Leads to a field integral optimized value for the skew angle V4 V2 All Without Iron
Field Integral Optimization Optimized skew angle depends on coil length V4 V2 0.9 m 1.9 m V4 V2 1.9 m 0.9 m Without Iron
Loadlines Loadlines depend on the angle of the field in the aperture V2H2 100% 90% 80% 70% 60% 50% Without Iron
Directionality – Field Integral • System is coupled • Angular Plot • Angle gives field direction • Amplitude gives field integral • X-coordinate gives horizontal field integral • Y-coordinate gives vertical field integral Without Iron
Directionality – Normal Forces Normal Forces are also angle dependent Maximum force is 7800 N/m For titanium former 3% only of the shear stress V2H2 Without Iron
Directionality - Torque Torque is angle dependent Peak value is 25000 Nm Torque To compare: Glyn’s Mercedes ML has only 616.9 Nm Torque 40.5 X Mercedes ML Without Iron
Torsion , • If the horizontal and vertical layers are not on the same former • Assuming a 10 mm thick solid titanium tube • With only the ends fixed • The stress is then 32.9 MPa • The torsion in the centerwould be ~0.25 deg • Unacceptably high • Conclusion: V-H must be mechanically connected using same or somehow interconnected former(s)
Iron Yoke Field Enhancement • Calculated Iron yoke influence using ROXIE • Long computation times • Non-standard coil for ROXIE • With iron can gain approximately 0.3-0.5 Tm
Comparison Compare specifications per layer with original cos-theta design (note original design has only vertical component) !
Integrated Harmonics ROXIE (high b3?): Without Iron at 2/3r = 50mm ? • Field Code (only noise): at 2/3r = 50mm • Need measurement and perhaps review of codes …
Quench – No Heaters Quench estimation usingcode Glyn Voltage limited to 1 kV Conclusion: need heaters Peak Temperature [K] Too High! Bulk Temperature [K] Current [A] Voltage [V]
Quench – With Heaters Placement for the quench heaters to hit all turns at once in high field area (idea G. de Rijk) Would be able to get entire coil normal in ~8 msafter firing the heaters Tube for heater can be ‘printed’ under ribs inside former
Proposed Steps • First– 0.5 m long 2 layer version (BlueWhale) • Winding test • Field quality measurement • Second – 0.9 meter titanium former, insulated cable, V2 coil which comprises 5/6 components • 1/2 x Former • 2 x Cable • 2 x Outer compression ring • Afterwards– re-optimize the design
Conclusion • Numerical tooling for the design of CCT coils has been developed • Optimized field integrals as function of length for 150 mm free bore coil • Proposed a design for MCXB corrector coils • Can be applied to horizontal and vertical • Needs work • Improved (ROXIE) model with Iron • Assembly technique and Pre-stress on cable • Better stress analysis in tube for the 25000 Nm Torque • Protection • Redesign ground insulation (H-V separation?) • Improve CAD interface for former
