| Abstract: | The effect of current sweep reversal on the temporal drift in magnetic field intensity for a Bi-2223 solenoid was investigated by experiment and using numerical simulation. Current sweep reversal, by as small as 1% of the peak current, was found to stabilize the drift in magnetic field intensity for a Bi-2223 tape solenoid. The field drift was due to flux creep in the Bi-2223 tape and the current sweep reversal formed a barrier for flux entrance at the upper and lower surface of the conductor, preventing flux creep. With a current reversal of several% of the peak current, the barrier formation extended over half of the solenoid and the magnetic field intensity became constant with time. The current sweep reversal technique should prove useful to stabilize an ultra-high field low/high-temperature superconducting nuclear magnetic resonance magnet operated at frequencies (field intensities) beyond 1 GHz (23.5 T). |
