IRON and coil magnets
Iron dominated magnets
Shape of the field given by the iron
Winding give the flux
Limited to 1.8 T by iron saturation
Winding can be resistive /superconductive
Low-loss injector magnet,
F. Borgnolutti, et al, MT22 (2012)
The supercoductive option os also called superferric – warm or cold yoke
Coil dominated magnets
Shape of the field given by the conductor position
Limited by field tolerated by conductor
Iron gives second order effect (acts as a
virtual coil, field enhancement)

Why this configuration?
Opposite sign in left-right is necessary to avoid that the field created by the
left part is canceled by the right one

Multipoles n are proportional to sin ( n angle of the sector)
They can be made equal to zero !
Proportional to the inverse of sector distance to power n

With one wedge one can set to zero three
multipoles (B3, B5 and B7)
What about two wedges ?

sin(5a 5 )  sin(5a 4 )  sin(5a 3 )  sin(5a 2 )  sin(5a1 )  0

sin(11a 5 )  sin(11a 4 )  sin(11a 3 )  sin(11a 2 )  sin(11a1 )  0
One can set to zero five multipoles (B3, B5, B7 , B9 and B11)
~[0°-33.3°, 37.1°- 53.1°, 63.4°- 71.8°]

1. FIELD QUALITY CONSTRAINTS
Limits due to the cable geometry
Finite thickness  one cannot produce sectors of any width
Cables cannot be key-stoned beyond a certain angle, some wedges
can be used to better follow the arch
One does not always aim at having zero multipoles
There are other contributions (iron, persistent currents …)
Codes can estimate and optimize (e.g. ROXIE) – but never lose the
feeling of what you are doing ! (more info USPAS Unit 8)

Aim: approximate analytical equations for magnetic design
We recall the equations for the critical surface
Nb-Ti: linear approximation is good
with s~6.0108 [A/(T m2)] and B*c2~10 T at 4.2 K or 13 T at 1.9 K
This is a typical mature and very good Nb-Ti strand

The current density in the coil is lower
Strand made of superconductor and normal conducting (copper)
Cu/noCu is the ratio between the copper and the superconductor, usually
ranging from 1 to 2 in most cases
If the strands are assembled in rectangular cables, there are voids:
w-c is the fraction of cable occupied by strands (usually ~85%)
The cables are insulated:
c-i is the fraction of insulated cable occupied by the bare cable (~85%)
The current density flowing in the insulated cable is
reduced by a factor  (filling ratio)
   w c  c i

The filling ratio ranges from ¼ to 1/3

A rough estimate of the iron thickness necessary
The iron cannot withstand more than 2 T

RI
Shielding condition for dipoles:
rB ~ t iron Bsat
i.e., the iron thickness times 2 T is equal to the central field times the
magnet aperture – One assumes that all the field lines in the aperture
go through the iron (and not for instance through the collars)
Example: in the LHC main dipole the iron thickness is 150 mm

Iron saturation in RHIC magnet [R. Gupta]
For high field magnet iron gets saturated – mirror approximation not
valid, nonlinear effect –computed with FEM (Opera, Ansys, ROXIE)

The filaments get magnetized during a field change
Since they are superconductive, current flow forever  persistent

Magnetization for ramping field according to Bean model
Persistent current measured vs computed in Tevatron dipoles From P. Bauer et al, FNAL TD-02-040 (2004)
These currents have a large impact at injection on field quality
Effect proportional to filament size
One can decide to correct with wedges at injection and have residual
at high field or viceversa (depends on the magnet function)

Block coil (HD2, HD3, Fresca2)
Cable is not keystoned, perpendicular to the midplane
Ends are wound in the easy side, but must be flared to make space
for aperture (bend in the hard direction)
Internal structure to support the coil needed

CONCLUSIONS
Main parameter to choose for a magnet design
Current density and coil width
Field quality can be solved with azimuthal layout (some wedges)
Looks complicate, but it is not
Dipole: field propto coil width and current density
Quadrupole: gradient propto ln(1+w/r) and current density
In both cases, adding more and more coil is not worth – asymptotic
limit – important to know where to stop
Other factors: protection, mechanics
Most magnets work with a current density around 500 A/mm2
Cos theta is the workhorse of accelerator magnets
Block design is interesting but needs more experience

The same approach can be used for a quadrupole
We define

the only difference is that now c gives the gradient per unit of
current density, and in Bp we multiply by r for having T and not
T/m
We compute the quantities at the short sample limit for a material
with a linear critical surface (as Nb-Ti)

The ratio  is defined as ratio between peak field and
