11 T Dipole Informal Coil and Assembly Readiness Review CERN September 2013 Review committee: Herman Ten Kate CERN (Chair) Fred Nobrega FNAL Davide Tommasini CERN
CERN and FNAL are jointly developing the 11 T 2-in-1 dipole since October 2010 Two 1-in-1 model magnets have been tested at FNAL and the quench performance indicate substantial conductor degradation The short model magnet program in both labs is currently addressing the suspected performance limitations by constructing a series of 1-in-1 and 2-in-1 model magnets 1 st 2-m-long Nb 3 Sn coil based on FNAL coil technology has been completed at CERN CERN expect to test the first 1-in-1 model magnet in March 2014 The purpose of this review is to provide feed-back on CERN coil fabrication process and the readiness to assemble the first 1-in-1 model magnet Introduction Sep 2013M.

Develop and qualify the Nb 3 Sn coil technology for 5.5-m- long magnets: o Coil design o Components: cable, insulation, wedges, end parts, etc. o Tooling and infrastructure o Fabrication process o Quality control and instrumentation o R&D topics o Scale-up to 5.5 m coils Validate the cold mass design and assembly process for 5.5-m-long magnets : o Cold mass design o Components: collars, yoke, end plates, shell, etc. o Assembly process o Assembly tooling o Quality control and instrumentation Short Magnet Program Goals Sep 2013M. Karppinen CERN TE-MSC
Is the planned CERN short model program adequate to qualify magnet design and fabrication process for the 5.5- m-long prototype magnet? Is the time scale realistic, what are the possible bottlenecks, and are there sufficient human resources to execute the plan? Review questions: Program Sep 2013M. Karppinen CERN TE-MSC
Are the cable design, cabling process, and quality control of dimensional and electro-magnetic parameters well established? What short and longer term improvements could be implemented? Is the conductor procurement plan compatible with the model magnet program? Does the conductor and cable meet the requirements for 5.5-m-long Nb 3 Sn coils? Review questions: Cable Sep 2013M. Karppinen CERN TE-MSC
Are the lessons from FNAL model program implemented? Is the coil fabrication process and quality control at the required level to ensure: o Dimensional accuracy o Electrical integrity of the coils o Reproducibility o Traceability Is all coil fabrication tooling and infrastructure ready and operational? Does the coil instrumentation provide sufficient information to understand and monitor the magnet behavior during testing? Can the magnet be safely operated and is the proposed protection scheme scalable for full-size magnets? Review questions: Coil Sep 2013M. Karppinen CERN TE-MSC
Is the understanding of the mechanical behavior of the magnet clear and applicable for the real-life construction process ? Does the mechanical instrumentation provide sufficient information to understand and monitor the magnet behavior during construction and testing? Is magnet assembly tooling adequate and operational? Is magnet assembly process appropriate and scalable for long magnet? Review questions: Assembly Sep 2013M. Karppinen CERN TE-MSC
