| Abstract: | A conduction-cooled superconducting magnet producing a transverse field of 4 T has been designed for a new generation multi-field coupling measurement system,which will be used to study the mechanical behavior of superconducting samples at cryogenic temperatures and intense magnetic fields.A compact cryostat with a two-stage GM cryocooler is designed and manufactured for the superconducting magnet.The magnet is composed of a pair of flat racetrack coils wound by NbTi/Cu superconducting composite wires,a copper and stainless steel combinational former and two Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_v superconducting current leads.The two coils are connected in series and can be powered with a single power supply.In order to support the high stress and attain uniform thermal distribution in the superconducting magnet,a detailed finite element(FE) analysis has been performed.The results indicate that in the operating status the designed magnet system can sufficiently bear the electromagnetic forces and has a uniform temperature distribution. |
