EuCARD-2 aims to research ReBCO superconducting magnets for future accelerator applications. The properties of ReBCO conductors are very different from low-temperature superconductors. To investigate dynamic field quality, stability, and normal zone propagation, an elec...

A design study is presented for the coil layout of the EuCARD-2 Fiver Tesla HTS Research (FeaTHeR) magnet. The angular dependence of the critical current in the used ReBCO Roebel cable is taken into account. This leads to a new coil layout named aligned block. This layo...

Due to the wide spectrum of current sharing temperatures in a high-temperature superconducting (HTS) magnet, estimating the energy required to quench the magnet is a complicated task. On the other hand, quenching a low-temperature superconducting (LTS) magnet for quench...

Roebel cable with second-generation YBCO strands is one of the promising high-temperature superconducting solutions of fully transposed high current conductors for high field accelerator magnets. Following the considerable research effort on the manufacturing of Roebel ...

The luminosity upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) requires the development of a new generation of superconducting magnets based on Nb$_{3}$Sn technology. In order to monitor the magnet thermo-mechanical behaviour during its service life, from the coil fabrica...

International audience; EuCARD-2 is a project supported by FP7-European Commission that includes, inter alia, a work-package (WP10) called ldquoFuture Magnets.rdquo This project is part of the long term development that CERN is launching to explore magnet technology at ...

Future high-energy accelerators will need very high magnetic fields in the range of 20 T. The EuCARD-2 WP10 Future Magnets collaboration is aiming at testing HTS-based Roebel cables in an accelerator magnet. The demonstrator should produce around 17 T, when inserted int...

High- ${T}_{{c}}$ superconducting (HTS) dipole magnets are expected to be used in the upgrade of existing particle accelerators. In the framework of EuCARD-2 project, a new dipole-generating field between 17 and 20 T is under consideration with an HTS insert providing 5...

MIITs, a zero-dimensional concept to study hot spot temperature, has been previously used to estimate hot spot temperatures and quench heater delays in NbTi and Nb$_{3}$Sn magnets. However, quench behavior is completely different in hightemperature superconducting (HTS)...

REBCO coated conductors (CCs) have the potential to widen considerably the application areas of superconductivity. Quench protection of REBCO-based devices represents one of the major obstacles to this expansion. Thermal conductivity data are mandatory ingredients for q...
