1 On behalf of the STEAM team
cern.ch/STEAM ProteCCT (Protection of Canted-Cosine-Theta-type Magnets) 1st STEAM Workshop June 2019 Matthias Mentink, On behalf of the STEAM team

2 Overview Motivation Thermal aspects Internal circuit / Co-simulation
User interface Complexities + correction factors: Oversimplified model of eddy currents in the formers  Correction factor fLoopFactor Additional helium present between the (non-bonded) formers and outer cylinder  Correction factor addedHeCpFrac Simulation vs. experimental observations Running the model Demonstration Summary

3 Motivation Why STEAM-ProteCCT?
Canted-Cosine-Theta (CCT) magnets: superconducting strand inside slots in conductive former [1] Insulated Nb-Ti/Cu strand Aluminum former Why STEAM-ProteCCT? Canted Cosine Theta Magnets: Concentric superconducting coils held in place by conductive aluminum formers Quench protection of MCBRD Twin Aperture Orbit Correctors for HL-LHC upgrade and other future CCT-type magnets Magnet is discharged over energy extractor Eddy currents in the conductive formers  Heating in formers  Fast development of normal zone throughout superconducting coils (Quench-back) Complex three-dimensional geometry  Quench simulation with STEAM-ProteCCT CCT coils Formers Eddy currents in the formers Eddy currents in formers surrounding CCT coils during discharge (Field, courtesy J. van Nugteren) [1] G. Kirby et al. IEEE Trans. on Appl. Supercond. 28, p (2018)

4 Thermal aspects Turn-to-turn periodic boundary condition Thermal layout [1] Three-dimensional thermal propagation in simplified geometry [2] Longitudinal heat propagation along length of strands, insulation, and formers Transverse heat propagation Individual thermal elements for strands, insulation, formers, former insulation Heat flow to the bath: 1.9 K: Kapitza + film boiling cooling, 4.5 K: Nucleate + film boiling Periodic boundary condition: Simulation of single turn per former to simulate entire magnet Non-linear magnetic-field- and temperature-dependent properties taken from STEAM library and LEDET material database [2] M. Mentink et al. IEEE Trans. on Appl. Supercond. 28, p (2018)

5 Internal circuit / Co-simulation
Main circuit with CCT coils: Inductance, internal resistance, crowbar and dump resistor Formers + outer cylinder: Inductively coupled to main circuit M Circuit types: Internal circuit: inductance of CCT coils, internal resistance, crowbar, dump resistor + switch External circuit: ProteCCT takes external current waveform (co-simulation) Both cases: Main circuit (CCT coils) inductively coupled to formers and outer cylinder Adaptive time-stepping (constraints on maximum dT/dt, maximum dI/dt in formers, user-specified dt) Representation of internal circuit

6 Model input: Excel file
User interface ProteCCT user manual [3] All user input is taken from a single Excel file (inspired by LEDET user interface) Co-simulation: Tool exchanges information through text-files For the most part, easy-to-understand parameters (Conductor RRR, Operating current, etc.) Model input: Excel file [3] M. Mentink, “STEAM-ProteCCT User manual”, EDMS nr , (2019)

7 Complexity & correction factor #1: fLoopFactor
Coupling-matrix calculated in Comsol, assuming simplified 2D geometry with cos-θ current distribution Determination of fLoopFactor by matching to experimentally observed low-current discharge (no quench-back) Coupling matrix: Calculated in Comsol, assuming simplified 2D geometry with cos-θ current distribution in the coils, formers, and outer cylinder [3] Assumption: Eddy current flows axially through formers Reality: Eddy current model is oversimplified, so global correction factor fLoopFactor needed that augments the effective path lengths of the eddy currents fLoopFactor determined by matching discharge to experimental result at low current without quench-back [3] M. Mentink, “STEAM-ProteCCT User manual”, EDMS nr , (2019)

8 Complexity & correction factor #2: addedHeCpFrac
Sliding and deformation of formers during powering (Courtesy Martin Novak) Liquid helium between formers Simulated vs. Observed onset of Quench back (Measurement data: Courtesy F. Mangiarotti) In addition to helium to bath cooling: Additional liquid helium present between non-bonded formers and outer cylinder  Slows down quench-back onset Extra helium heat capacity: 0.13 MPa liquid + gas, with inclusion helium gas enthalpy Added as global correction factor addedHeCpFrac  Additional heat capacity in formers (~0.6%) Determination of correction factor by matching quench back onset tQB at I0 = 400 A, 1.9 K, 1.43 Ω  Used as a global parameter

9 Simulation vs. Experimental observation
MCBRDp1 prototype, discharge over 1.43 Ω dump resistor MCBRDp1 prototype, discharge over Metrosil varistor MCBRDs1b short model, discharge over Metrosil varistor Comparison between simulation and experimental (MCBRD prototype apertures and short models): High degree of consistency between simulations and experimental observations Checked for: Different magnetic lengths, former material types, operating temperatures, varying dump resistors + Metrosil varistors, operating currents Two fixed global correction parameters fLoopFactor and addedHeCpFrac for all cases Measurement data: Courtesy F. Mangiarotti

10 Running the simulation
Voltage-to-ground calculation (During simulation, t = 50 ms) Strand temperature development (During simulation, t = 50 ms) Very fast: Typically no more than few minutes to run Free-to-use standalone executable, no license required (Does require MCR installation) During simulation: Optional plotting of voltage-to-ground and strand temperature for each time-step Simulation output written to excel file: Time-dependent Current, hot-spot temperature, voltage-to-ground of selected turns, etc

11 Demo: MCBRDp1 ProteCCT is found on STEAM website: cern.ch/steam
