System and method of predicting initial cooling of superconducting magnet

An apparatus for predicting initial cooling of a superconducting magnet, comprising:

• an influence factor setting unit for setting influence factors for predicting the initial cooling of a superconducting magnet, the influence factors including region factors and constituent factors, and the constituent factors being classified into conduction heat factors and radiation heat factors according to heat transfer mode;
• a control volume setting unit for setting at least one control volume on the basis of constituents of each device participating in the cooling of the superconducting magnet;
• a governing equation inducing unit for checking the influence factors with respect to each of the control volumes and then inducing a governing equation with respect to each of the control volumes using the checked influence factors;
• and
• an initial cooling predicting unit for predicting the initial cooling of the superconducting magnet using the governing equation.
