Principle of a coil and a cold diode
![Page 11: Meeting with PH-DT-DI @ CERN-26 March 2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815aa7550346895dc83be2/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Apparition of a resistive zone r
Quench propagates very quicky and generates a voltage that open the
diode.
Then the coil discharges safely on itself.
This system is intrinsically safe
![Page 12: Meeting with PH-DT-DI @ CERN-26 March 2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815aa7550346895dc83be2/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Typical self decay in ≠ 5 s
It is safe if the coil by construction can supportthe generated hot spot.
One can spread more the energy by triggeringthe quench-heaters of the long quenched coil.

Two-coil set up
•Quench of one coil near nominal current is likely to trigger quench of the other coil
![Page 14: Meeting with PH-DT-DI @ CERN-26 March 2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815aa7550346895dc83be2/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Quench-back effect
![Page 15: Meeting with PH-DT-DI @ CERN-26 March 2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815aa7550346895dc83be2/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• If coupling is not sufficient, one can use the quench-heaters to induce quenches of the other coils (but one needs a Quench-Detector).
• However, at reduced current ( < 2/3rd Ic) the quench-heaters are not efficient because the coils are much more stable.
• This is where is the real risk for the multi-coil systems.
Possible problem
![Page 16: Meeting with PH-DT-DI @ CERN-26 March 2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815aa7550346895dc83be2/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
If second coil does not quench
•Current of the unquenched coil continues to circulate through the opened diode of the quenched coil for a long time!

Real case of unquenched coil
![Page 18: Meeting with PH-DT-DI @ CERN-26 March 2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815aa7550346895dc83be2/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
First risk is to over heat theconnecting wires
One can show that the temperature of a given wire at time t, is a directly dependent
of:
Called the current load in MIITS
( In adiabatic conditions!)

Second risk is to overheat thecold diode connected to its heat-sink
Diodes
( Also considered in adiabatic conditions!)

Two-coil set up - final
•The trick is to add a dump resistor to make sure the residual current will disappear in a time safe for the cold wires and the diodes

LHC quench analysis
•This protection scheme is the one adopted by the LHC with 154 magnets in series!

Conclusions
•Each coil is self protected by its cold diode that allows discharge on itself.•Detection of quench stops the power supply, and powers the quench-heaters of the quenched coil to better spread the thermal energy in it.•If another coil quenches it is treated in the same way but how many coils quench in cascade is uncertain, as it depends for example of the current level.•After some time (≠ 30 seconds) the breaker is opened so that all currents disappear in a time safe for the cold wires and the cold diodes
