GDT - High Field Conduction-Cooled HTS NINT Magnet
Techniques are described for lowering strains applied to superconducting material in a superconducting magnet by arranging structural partitions between turns of the superconducting material that intercept and transfer strain to a mechanically stronger structure, such as the housing of the magnet. A structural partition may be formed with a feedthrough slit so that the superconducting aterial can easily pass through the partition. A number of structural partitions may be interspersed between groups of turns of super-conducting material in a magnet so that forces can be sufficiently distributed by the partitions throughout the magnet. At the same time, the number of structural partitions may be selected to minimize the amount of space within the magnet occupied by the partitions that could otherwise be occupied by current-carrying superconducting material.
