Current distribution in parallel paths of the coils of a 50 Hz prototype dipole magnet

Description

The prototype dipole made for TRIUMF's Kaon Factory proposal used coils with 12 parallel paths to reduce eddy current losses in the conductors. The ac current distribution in these paths was non-uniform due to different self and mutual inductances. Small differences in inductance can cause large circulating currents in the parallel windings. This paper describes the measurement of the inductances and shows an attempt to predict the current distribution for two alternative connection schemes. (author). 4 refs., 8 figs
