2 AFSWG Mtg 1 Aug 2003 Elwyn Baynham RAL 2D axis symmetric eddy current model of absorber cryostat
3 AFSWG Mtg 1 Aug 2003 Elwyn Baynham RAL Eddy Currents l Computation of eddy currents in focus absorber system under coil quench conditions »Max di/dt related to a run down in approx 3 secs –either linear run down or quench di/dt profile »Studied –Power dissipation in coil and absorber components –Forces in components – in particular windows »Cases –Flip –Solenoid – simple reversal –Flip with offset absorber
