Final design of a superconducting MHD magnet for the Coal-Fired Flow Facility at the University of Tennessee Space Institute
Description
The superconducting magnet system (SCMS) consists of a superconducting magnet, magnet cryostat, a helium refrigerator/liquefier facility, a helium gas-handling system, apparatus for cryogenic transfer and storage, a magnet power supply, an integrated instrumentation and control system including a computer for magnet operation, data acquisition, system status and diagnosis, and magnet protection. The complete system will be tested at Argonne and installed at the Coal-Fired Flow Facility (CFFF) at the University of Tennessee Space Institute (UTSI) in 1981. The coil configurations, conductor design, coil structure, cryostatibility, electromagnetic forces and pressure, structural support and stress analysis, and power supply and magnet protection are described
