Inductive Quench for Magnet Protection
Exclusively Licensed
Invention type: Technology
/
Case number: #12129J
A coil system for inductively heating a superconducting magnet in order to provide an internal energy dump by uniformly quenching a high performance superconducting magnet. The quench-inducing system uses AC magnetic fields that require negligible reactive power. The system is especially suited for inducing a relatively uniform quench in dry superconducting magnets.
