Applied Superconductivity Group

• Aim Scientific and technical research on
  applied superconductivity.
• Structure
• There is a common laboratory shared by two
  Institutes CIEMAT-CEDEX
• CIEMAT contribution consists of 8 people while
  CEDEX one is 5.
• CIEMAT site is mainly devoted to calculation,
  design and fabrication, whereas CEDEX one focuses
  on assembly and testing.
• The group has been working under this framework
  since 1996.

10
Capabilities

• Calculation
• Electromagnetic analysis (high and low
  frequency).
• Mechanical analysis.
• Quench modelling (superconducting devices).
• Prototyping
• Design and fabrication follow-up of tooling.
• Fabrication follow-up and assembly of
  electromechanical devices.
• Coil winding.
• Testing
• Superconductivity Laboratory two cryostats, a
  GM cryocooler, power supplies up to 2000 A.

11
List of developments

• High Temperature Superconductors
• Warm bore solenoid (gyrotron upgrade TJII)
• HTS current leads (LHC, TESLA500)
• Bearings (ACE2 Superconductor)
• Low Temperature Superconductors
• SMES (AMAS500)
• Magnets for LHC tuning quadrupole, 2 trim
  quadrupole, superferric octupole, and tests of
  correctors (sextupoles, decapoles, octupoles).
• Magnet package for TESLA500 and XFEL.
• Design of the EFDA (European Fusion Development
  Agreement) dipole.
• Design of high field magnets for NED (Next
  European Dipole) program.
• Cryogenics (XFEL, AMS)

TESLA500

• Calculation and detailed design of a combined
  superconducting prototype magnet for TESLA500 a
  quadrupole and two dipoles. (2002-04)

14
ILC

• The TESLA500 prototype magnet will be tested in
  SLAC to carefully measure
• The stability of the magnetic axis (should be
  better than 5 microns according to ILC
  requirements).
• The field quality at low currents (persistent
  currents effect).
• An Expression of Interest have been sent to the
  Global Design Effort group concerning the
  engineering design of the main linac magnet.

15
XFEL contribution (I)

• Design of a combined superferric magnet (2005).
• Fabrication of four prototypes (starting in 2006).

16
XFEL contribution (II)

• Fabrication and test of the first prototype (2007)

17
HTS magnet for a gyrotron upgrade

• Design and fabrication of a cryostat for a
  cryocooler (CIEMAT, 2005)
• Fabrication and testing of HTS coils (CIEMAT,
  2005-06)
• Design of a HTS solenoid for a gyrotron upgrade
  2T, 150 mm aperture. (CIEMAT, 2007)

18
Next European Dipole

• Phase I characterization and fabrication of high
  current density Nb3Sn cable, besides conceptual
  studies on high field magnet design.
• Contribution to the Working Group on Magnet
  Design and Optimization.
• Phase II (FP7) design and fabrication of Nb3Sn
  corrector magnets for future particle
  accelerators or upgrades.

Possible future contributions to large facilities
(I)

• XFEL
• Superconducting magnets and power supplies
• Intersections
• LHC UPGRADE
• NbTi corrector magnet package (in collaboration
  with Rutherford Appleton Laboratory).
• IFMIF (International Fusion Materials
  Irradiation Facility)
• Magnets for DTL (not decided if superconducting
  or resistive yet)

21
Possible future contributions to large facilities
(II)

• FAIR
• EoI on 10th December 2007 Superconducting
  magnets are our preferred candidate to start with
  (as long as our accelerators group has just been
  created).
• Super-FRS superconducting multiplets
  (quadrupoles, correctors, etc). A new facility
  would be needed for vertical assembly of 6 meter
  long cryostats.
• NESR/RESR resistive magnets and other components
  can be a later contribution once the accelerator
  group is settled and the rings defined.
• In any case, the scope of both developments
  should be in accordance with the financial
  contribution expressed by our funding agency.
• A Super-FRS magnet prototype development could
  be started on April 2008. It could be a type 3
  quadrupole (0.8 m with octupole, PSP 2.4.2.2.3)
  or a sextupole (PSP 2.4.2.3.2).

Possible future contributions to large facilities
(III)

• FAIR
• Proposed schedule for the quadrupole prototype.
  A preliminary calculation was developed in St.
  Petersburg and a conceptual design was done by
  Toshiba
