Two-phase helium-IV quench analysis for superconducting magnets

  • 1. Union Carbide Corp, Oak Ridge, TN, USA

Description

The sizing of a coil venting system to ensure that the coil cavity design pressure is not exceeded during a quench is a critical part of any superconducting coil design. This paper describes the calculations performed by this computer program to analyze the two-phase venting of the helium coolant during a superconducting coil quench. The coils being analyzed are a pool boiling, superconducting magnet for the Large Coil Program
