III. Final test main results

• Fast current discharge in the dump resistor for various currents :

Goal: does the discharge cause quench back?

– @ 5 kA – @ 10 kA – @ 13 kA– @ 15 kA – @ 15 kA (with PHs firing)

(without firing the PHs)

III. Final test main results

At 5 kA and 10 kA, magnet does not quenchAt 13 kA, magnet partially quenchesAt 15 kA, strong evidence that a relevant fraction of the magnet is quenched

Computation based on the instantaneous time constant of the exponential current decay:

• Comparison of the magnet total resistance

• High Miits quenches without dump resistor:

Goal: can the HQ survive with all energy deposited in the helium bath?

– Iq = 15,448 A with PHs firing

– Iq = 15,917 A without inner layer PHs

Goal: What is the final temperature of the magnet for high Miits?

III. Final test main results

• Comparison of the current decay with and without dump

Strong increase of the Miits when no dump is used, a lot of He loss.

III. Final test main results

• Attempt to compute magnet resistance from adiabatic model.

Page 19: HQ test at CERN:  overview  and protection studies

• The HQ01e has undergone 3 warm-up/cool-down, and more than 70 quenches during 8 weeks of test.

• Maximum magnet current: 14,681 A @ 4.2K & 16,216 A (184 T/m) @ 1.9K i.e. 85% of the short sample limit and greater than nominal current 14.9 kA

• Regular training quenches can be obtained with pauses during the ramp and decrease of the ramp rate.Using the same ramp rate all the way has proved to limit the performance due to early quench in COIL 7. Coil 7 and 8 are statistically the limiting coils.

• The final test tends to show that when one has a fast dump on the resistor at 15 kA, the magnet quenches:• PHs have no significant impact when a dump resistor is used

• Without dump resistor current discharge is in agreement with a 20 ms delay of heaters• 16.6 MITTS at 16 kA, so hot spot below 300 K.
