Azimuthal Stress Coil Under Press, @ 293 K After Collaring, @ 293 K It’s very interesting that the collared is not really affected by friction. Maybe this is due to the small displacement (0.05mm) applied during collaring (compared to the 11T, 0.1mm). But the coil stress is also not really affected by friction in the 11T. So this is consistent. After Shell Welding, @ 293 K @ 4.2 K @ 4.2 K, 140 T/m @ 4.2 K, 155 T/m Haris Kokkinos www.feacomp.com

Sensitivity Analysis Haris Kokkinos www.feacomp.com
Tolerances Yoke ± 3,8 μm Collar ± 6,3 μm Angle of loading plate ± 0,2° Coil (outside diameter) ± 75 μm The sensitivity analysis is conducted by utilizing the DOE method (Design of Experiments) which determines sampling points on a response surface About 8 input parameters have to be checked. About 100 variations of the model have to be run Up to now, we have solved for 6 input parameters, ,corresponding to 45 variations Haris Kokkinos www.feacomp.com

Conclusions Haris Kokkinos www.feacomp.com
Conclusions New mechanical design concept for a Nb3Sn quadrupole, suitable for industrial production The FEA shows that the assembly is well controlled, with all parts staying generally within the accepted stress levels Coil pre-stress is applied in a well-controlled manner and is easily tuneable with shims The pole-loading concept allows to position the coil’s peak stress at the poles, and the min stress at the mid-plane Assembly is possible with a dipole-type press, due to the tapered-shape mid-plane poles and the dipole-type collars The Al-bars act like gap controllers at RT, while at cold the tapered - horizontally split iron yoke with a closed gap provides a rigid structure The coil is symmetric at operating temperature Robust parametric, FE multi-physics analysis Next steps: 1) Sensitivity analysis 2) Alignment features at the collar – yoke interface 3) Report for phase II Reference: M.
