HL-LHC Corrector Magnet 3D design status Giovanni Volpini on behalf of the LASA team CERN, February 25, 2014
Specification done, design in progress First tests, first experiences… To start when a 3D em “stable” design is issued To be done So far, looks OK Work status Magnets Design Problems waiting for us just round the (3D) corner… magnetic length cross-talk between magnets fringe field (“harmonics” at the magnet ends) forces between magnets Residual magnetization at I=0 and impact on the harmonics Cross check COMSOL results w/ Roxie (March 2014) Mechanical design (May 2014) Construction & test Wind & impregnate a dummy coil (June 2014) Design the test cryostat Giovanni Volpini, CERN 25 February Being addressed
Sextupole cross-section Giovanni Volpini, CERN 25 February yoke coil Sextupole bore
3D design: geometry Giovanni Volpini, CERN 25 February rectangular, race track, coils; iron yoke extruded; option for a stray flux return yoke investigated in the COMSOL model COMSOL Roxie with flux return without flux return
Computations performed Using the two codes to cross-check & validate the results Linear iron (µ r = 4000) to validate a model & cross-check results “Roxie”- like saturating iron with filling factor Six cases {40 mm, 50 mm, 60 mm} x {with RY, without RY (Air)} For each the following current have been considered {20 A, 50 A, 100 A, 150 A, 200 A, 300 A, 400 A} For each case, Longitudinal & Integrated A 3 /B 3, integrated harmonics, peak field on conductor Giovanni Volpini, CERN 25 February
COMSOL vs Roxie Use two codes to cross-check & validate the results: COMSOL + Mathematica for harmonic analysis; Roxie 2D results: agreement within few parts/10 4 on fields; few % on relevant harmonics. Satisfactory for our purposes. WARNING: use of LSOLV in Roxie option leads to inaccurate results, with a discrepancy w.r.t. COMSOL as large as 3% on fields. 3D results: agreement within ~1% on fields; 10% on relevant harmonics. Acceptable but not exciting. Giovanni Volpini, CERN 25 February

Operating point & length, I Giovanni Volpini, CERN 25 February Design integrated strength 60 mT m Design operating current ratio vs. s.s. limit (40%) … vs integrated B 3 …vs peak field on coils We compute the Ic at the peak field at s.s. limit. Dividing the magnetomotive force at s.s. limit by Ic, we get the no. of turns required. Dividing the operating magnetomotive force by the no. turns, we get the operating current.

summary For the sextupole, the overall 3D e.m. design seems compatible with the space constraints; Flux return at the magnet ends : for a given magnetomotive force and iron length, is less effective reduces the stray field reduces the integrated harmonics so it is probably OK: any drawback? hole shape Harmonics content not critical, numbers appear acceptable, Flux Return is also effective in reducing unwanted components. Giovanni Volpini, CERN 25 February
open issues summary Questions to be answered as soon as possible… operating currents; outer iron diameter & shape; radiation hardness compliance, insulation & impregnation; field quality & fringe field; mechanical & electrical connection between magnets and LHe vessel to be defined, along with room for bus-bars etc.; …and, not to be forgotten: the MgB 2 solution (playground) other solutions (combined function magnet)?
