Electro-Magnetic and Stress Analysis of a −400 T2/m High-Field Gradient Magnet with a Room-Temperature Bore Size of 200 mm
Source abstract
Abstract
High-field-strength gradient superconducting magnets have been widely used in many fields. With advancements in technology, the demand for large-aperture magnets is gradually increasing, but there is relatively little research on the design and stress–strain of large-aperture gradient magnets. This article presents the design and analysis of a superconducting magnet characterized by a high field strength of 10 T, a strong gradient of −400 T2/m, and a large room-temperature bore of 200 mm. The aim of this project is to establish an experimental setup for the growth of Ga1−xInxSb crystals. The study starts with an overview of the development process and applied research related to strong-gradient magnets. The study employs a magneto–electric force coupling method based on generalized stretching to theoretically optimize the gradient coil pre-stress parameters through orthogonalization parameter scanning. In addition, an analysis of the stress distribution in both the magnet coil and the mandrel is carried out. The results indicate that the stress and strain values for both the gradient coils and the frame are within the allowable range of their respective materials. The magnets can be designed to operate stably in theory. This article may provide a reference for designers in related fields in optimizing the design and stress–strain analysis of large, strong-gradient magnets.
