The design of the protection system for the superconducting elements in an accelerator such as the large Hadron collider (LHC), now under construction at CERN, requires a detailed understanding of the thermo-hydraulic and electrodynamic processes during a quench.

In case of resistive transition of a LHC superconducting magnet ("quench"), the stored energy is dissipated in the winding within a few tenths of a second. A fraction of this energy is transferred to the helium inside the windings and around the beam tubes, causing expansion and axial flow. This res

This report demonstrates the role of quench back in the quench protection of high current density superconducting solenoid magnets with well-coupled shorted secondary circuits. The phenomenon of "quench back" can be used to greatly reduce the size of an external quench protection resistor or even to
