✦ Synopsis


Experiments with test coils show that "training" of superconducting magnets is considerably reduced by loading and unloading the conductor at room temperature before winding the magnet. This preload treatment seems to be a simple way of coping with this problem.

A major factor in the design of large superconducting magnets is the problem of premature quenching, notably the "training" effect, associated with the use of epoxy resin impregnants. This paper draws attention to the existence of a simple but neglected solution to this problem. A review is given of

For EDS-type magnetically levitated trains, magnetic shielding of stray fields produced by superconducting magnets is an important task. We seek the optimal thickness distribution (configuration) of magnetic material, which is the lightest and keeps the magnetic field at tolerable levels in the vehi

One of the most important thermofluid processes encountered in internally cooled superconducting magnets is that of quenching. Numerical simulation of the quench propagation involves accurately modelling a moving boundary layer at the quench front. Due to the highly non-linear nature of the quench p
