Description

The electromagnet installed in the ball-screw type control element drive mechanism for SMART is the necessary parts for quick insertion of the control element into the core on scram state. The electromagnet is the state holding on to the moving parts by electromagnet force during normal operation, but on the scram situation, the moving parts are quickly inserted by gravity force by turning off the power supplied to the electromagnet. In this paper, by the pre-making part test of the electromagnet the electromagnet thrust forces by the air gap between anchors, the size of current density supplied and the circumferential fluid temperature are obtained. The results by this test are compared with those by the finite element analysis. The test results can be used as a reference data for electromagnet design
