Structure for Handling Inductively Propagating Quench in Toroidal Magnets

Described are concepts, systems, structures and techniques capable of handling quench. The concepts, systems, structures and techniques are capable of handling an inductively-propagating quench in a toroidal array of magnets. Such concepts, systems, structures and techniques find use in no- and partial-insulation (NI and PI) high temperature superconducting (HTS) magnets. Such NI and PI HTS magnets find use in a wide variety of applications including but not limited to: energy systems (e.g. fusion energy systems such as fusion reactors and wind generators employing HTS magnets), medical applications (e.g., magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) systems, motors; power transmission systems and particle accelerators.
