Abstract
Systems and methods for superconducting magnets are disclosed, such systems and methods comprising a primary coil and short-circuited secondary coil. The secondary coil can be made from a stack of superconducting tapes having longitudinal cuts forming closed superconductor loops without splices. The primary coil is used to pump the current into the secondary coil where it circulates continuously generating a permanent magnetic field.
Claims20
A superconducting magnet system comprising:
- a first conductor configured in a strip with a longitudinal cut along a portion of the first conductor;
- at least one second conductor configured in a strip with a longitudinal cut along a portion of the at least one second conductor;
- wherein the first conductor and the at least one second conductor are arranged in a stack and a first end of the first conductor is shorted to a first end of the at least one second conductor and a second end of the first conductor is shorted to a second end of the at least one second conductor thereby forming a closed loop;
- a resistive coil;
- and
- a yoke configured in spaced relation with the stack of the first conductor and the at least one second conductor and the resistive coil.
