Specific implementation mode
The aspect of the present invention has been shown as providing the advantages of being better than the method for pervious cooling superconducting magnets.Cooling super When magnetizer, the component that device and method of the invention do not need Mechanical Moving (for example, need not pump, need not supply outside The supply system of pressure need not be used for the refrigeration " ice chest " of refrigerant supply, not need tank supply stream of helium etc.).It is described cold But method is unrelated with orientation, is beneficial to the design, final physical volume and floor space of superconducting magnet component.It simplifies The integrated design of piping in existing superconducting magnet geometry.Moreover, the pulsation heat used in aspect through the invention The pulsation slug flow that pipe provides, can correct issuable any heat spot immediately.The further advantage that the design provides is not Expensive helium bath cooling is needed, and any refrigerant is not lost during cooling (quench).The capillary piping proposed can Bear the high pressure of several hectobars.Result it is not necessary to helium storage device.It is main letter not have helium storage device and its to freeze shell Change, the reason is that, it is largely reduced needing additional all secure contexts.Moreover, because not being typically used for standard helium vessel Conventional vertical neck or penetrability geometry, so magnet thermic load largely reduce and reduce.It is well known that penetrating Or inlet port causes the leakage under high temperature of magnet.Desirable Curve guide impeller the result is that the available room temperature hole that can increase magnet is wide Degree.In addition, further simplifying the suspension system kept in vacuum tank needed for helium vessel floating, and reduce heat leak. Finally, the cooling system of superconducting magnet system is enormously simplified.
Referring to Fig.1 with 2, it is shown that in conjunction with the main member of the superconducting magnet component 100 of the aspect of the present invention.Superconducting magnet Component 100 may include bobbin 102 (Fig. 2) and the superconduction winding that coiling coil 102 is wound, to including being configured to generate magnetic field Superconducting magnet.Two-phase heat-transfer arrangement (such as pulsating heat pipe) 10 is thermally connected with superconducting magnet.Pulsating heat pipe 10 designs and structure It causes to provide being fully cooled for superconducting magnet component 100.Pulsating heat pipe 10 may include any presently known or will develop later Pulsating heat pipe system 10 out.For example, pulsating heat pipe 10 may include piping 40, condenser portion 30 and evaporator section 20.
Superconducting magnet component 100 may include wound on one or the screwed pipe of several magnet frame recesses.Magnet frame or line Coil can be made of any suitable material, fiberglass reinforced plastics, synthetic material, metal (such as steel, aluminium, magnesium etc.), Ceramics or combinations thereof.
By the way that first magnet is cooled to close to heat shielding temperature, liquid is partially filled with to pulsating heat pipe 10 (such as being piped 40) State refrigerant.Then the high pressure gas to 40 filling of piping at room temperature.Magnet subcolling condenser convectively liquefies into piping 40 Gas, thus significantly reduce the gas pressure in piping 40, and generate refrigerant drop.In order to make piping 40 and other systems Component is used as pulsating heat pipe 10, and refrigerant is filled less than 40 entire volume of volumes of piping.Therefore, although being piped 40 volumes A part is filled with liquid refrigerant 44, but still has vapor coolant (such as refrigerant bubble 46) in rest part.Liquid Refrigerant may include one kind in helium 4, helium 3, hydrogen, neon, nitrogen, oxygen, argon, krypton and combinations thereof.In other embodiments, foundation is used for Other refrigerants appropriate can be used in the superconductor type of magnet.It has been found that the liquid in 40 part of piping of pulsating heat pipe 10 The heat that the various mixing of state refrigerant 44 and vapor coolant 46 are generated dissipation by superconducting magnet component 100 is effective. For example, in certain embodiments, liquid refrigerant can be in the range of about 10% to about 90% to the ratio of the total volume of piping 40. Similarly, in other embodiments, liquid refrigerant can be in the range of about 30% to about 70% to the ratio of the total volume of piping 40 It is interior.The remainder (part for being not filled by liquid refrigerant) of the total volume of piping 40 is (such as cold filled with vapor coolant Freeze agent bubble 46).Therefore, the percentage of the fillable total volume for being piped 40 of vapor coolant is in the range of about 90% to about 10%. In other embodiments, vapor coolant can be in the range of about 70% to about 30% to the ratio of the total volume of piping 40.With this The mixing of mode, liquid refrigerant and vapor coolant being capable of cooling superconducting magnets component 100.
The condenser portion 30 of various constructions can be used.Condenser portion 30 can be crossflow heat exchanger, such as in Fig. 2 In depicted in, thereon have with fin heat-exchange fin 32.Heat exchanger can be by copper or other suitable materials It is made.Direct thermo-contact may be present between condenser portion 30 and piping 40.Fig. 4 shows closed loop pulsating heat pipe 10 and its The detailed view of joint between the upper condenser 30 with fin 32.Clearly for condenser portion 30, using other Geometry and orientation, to fully provide for the cooling to superconducting magnet component 100.
Similarly, the evaporator section 20 of various constructions can be used.As shown in Fig. 2, evaporator section 20 can only need letter Single epoxy resin coil frame.Result it is not necessary to be passed using the filler used in being designed in the prior art to increase the heat of frame The property led.Although in the past 30 years endogenous development epoxide resin materials, synthetics etc. on paid sizable effort, but for High thermal conductivity filler only obtains limited success in the heat propagation performance for increasing bobbin.Recently, heat sink material can Embedded magnet frame.Although all these methods increase the cost of system, more importantly it is that they increase in magnet frame Induce the risk of stress.Magnet frame may rupture, and crackle may be further after magnet cools down or heats up rapidly It propagates.Cause superconducting magnet failure to be not without since epoxy resin ruptures and occurred.Under in terms of the present invention, avoid For the needs of any heat propagation mechanism.
Although piping 40 is shown as snakelike, the closed system pattern separated in fig 1 and 2, in the reality of the present invention Applying piping 40 in example can be arranged with a variety of constructions.Piping 40 may be disposed to closed loop or open cycle system.Piping 40 is shown in fig. 2 It is shown as the closed-loop system of two separations.First pulsating heat pipe 10 can be constructed in the peripheral of bobbin 20 or close to the outer of bobbin 20 It encloses, and endoporus of the second pulsating heat pipe 10 construction at the endoporus of bobbin 20 or close to bobbin 20.Piping 40 can be any The independent pipe 40 (i.e. capillary) of quantity, from single pipe 40 to the pipe 40 close to an infinite number of separation.The geometry knot of each pipe 40 Structure can also change to the piping 40 wherein with repeatedly bending 42 from the straight tube 40 for extending to condenser by evaporator.Piping 40 can It is arranged to the pattern of organized, snakelike and horizontal (or being slightly tilted), as depicted in figs. 1 and 2.In contrast, match Pipe 40 may be disposed to non-repeatability, asymmetrical and/or nonplanar arrangement, and still provide to superconducting magnet component 100 Sufficient cooling device.The advantages of aspect of the present invention, is that weight can be completely independent of by being piped 40 geometry and arrangement Power and orientation.In other words, the gravity and orientation of pulsating heat pipe 10 and piping 40 have no substantial effect on the liquid in pulsating heat pipe 10 Flowing with vapor coolant and cooling performance.For example, piping 40 can substantial horizontal, vertical or combinations thereof.In any situation Under, be piped 40 geometry it is adjustable and be arranged to the bobbin winder bracket 102 of 40 hot linked superconducting magnet components 100 of piping or The other element cooperations of person and matching.This allows the flexibility for increasing the manufacture size and arrangement of whole superconducting magnet component 100, The reason is that cooling body will not typically need additional and/or a large amount of design space.
The end section of superconducting magnet component 100 is shown in Figure 5.Multiple pipings 40 are shown as essentially around bobbin Periphery.Similarly, inner core of multiple pipings 40 essentially around bobbin.In this manner, pulsating heat pipe 10 can be generally Effectively cool down bobbin and superconducting magnet component 100.Although Fig. 5 show piping 40 along bobbin axis generally longitudinally Extend, it will be obvious that under in terms of the present invention, it is possible to be piped 40 other constructions.For example, for the coil of display Frame, piping 40 can the periphery of coiling coil extend in (such as perpendicular to 40 directions for extending in Figure 5 of piping).
Size according to superconducting magnet component 100 and application, the total volume of all pipings 40 of pulsating heat pipe 10 can be big In the range of about 10 milliliters to about 2 liters.Piping 40 can be any appropriate by copper and its alloy, aluminium and its alloy, steel etc. Material is made.Alternatively, piping 40 can be the capillary of interior wrap or the piping 40 of forming.The internal diameter of piping 40 can be about Within the scope of 1mm to about 8mm.Similarly, the diameter for being piped 40 need not be unified in the range of the whole length of piping 40, and It is that can change on its length range.For example, the diameter in the piping 40 of condensation portion is comparable in the other of pulsating heat pipe 10 Part is small, to slow down the flow velocity of refrigerant.Similarly, be piped 40 cross section can be other shapes, such as rectangular, rectangle, Elliptical shape etc..
The method of cooling superconducting magnets component 100 includes being thermally connected pulsating heat pipe 10 and superconducting magnet component 100.First Piping 40 is evacuated, the refrigerant being then partially filled under high pressure is such as discussed in this article.It is partially filled with including inciting somebody to action Filling liquid refrigerant 44 in the range of about 10% to about the 90% of the total volume of piping 40.The residual volume of piping 40 may include steaming Vapour refrigerant (steeps 46).In this way, working fluid (i.e. refrigerant) is distributed naturally in the length range of piping 40 At completely different liquid refrigerant 44 and steam bubble 46.In this way, in the various pipe portions of the piping 40 of pulsating heat pipe 10 Dividing has different volume fluid/distribution of steam.When pulsating heat pipe 10 operates, each piping 40 at evaporator section 20 Divide and is heated because it abuts superconducting magnet component 100.Similarly, 40 parts of each piping at condenser portion 30 are cold But.As a result, vapor coolant bubble 46 generates and/or increases in condenser zone, and in 30 atrophy of condenser portion and/or receipts Contracting.This change of the size of steam bubble 46 concomitantly causes the transmission of liquid refrigerant 44 due to the swabbing action of bubble, most Apparent heat is caused to be transmitted in pulsating heat pipe 10 eventually.The autoexcitation vibration of thermal induction starts.
Cooling equipment 10 can be designed according to aspects of the present invention so that steam bubble 46 has an opportunity in condenser portion 30 Lose their all potential heat, thus dimensionally atrophy.This requires steam bubble 46 in the resident of condenser portion 30 Time should be sufficient, so that steam bubble 46 condenses completely.Each steam bubble 46 carries the enthalpy of relatively small amount, more and more steam bubbles 46 should have an opportunity discharges their potential heat in condenser portion 30 so that their resultant effect exceeds may be because of them It is present in conflicting disadvantage caused by being piped 40.There should be enough liquid refrigerants 44 in pulsating heat pipe 10, so as to The heat being fully apparent from is transmitted.
An aspect of of the present present invention includes that the low thermal resistance of pulsating heat pipe 10 and good heat are transmitted.It has been found that in the present invention Aspect under, with the increase of thermic load on evaporator section 20, the efficiency of pulsating heat pipe 10 correspondingly increases.Typically, right In general (i.e. non-frozen dose) pulsating heat pipe, (i.e. the 30% of total volume is filled with non-frozen dose of liquid for 30% filling filling Coolant), it is best filling filling for efficiency purposes.
Although superconducting magnet component can be cooled to about 4.2 for superconducting operation by the exemplary embodiment of the present invention It opens, but other operation temperatures in addition to 4.2 open can be utilized without departing from the scope of the invention.For example, at this Under the aspect of invention, the superconductor (such as HTS types or MgB2 types) with more high transition temperature can be cooled down.
Although embodiment illustrated and described herein can be with the superconducting magnet group of the part of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system Part 100 is used together, but without departing from the scope of the invention, other superconducting magnet systems can utilize the present invention's Aspect.For example, cooling equipment and cooling method can be used together with other superconducting magnets, such as nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy system System, magnetic energy stocking system, superconducting generator, superconductive fault current limit, superconducting particles accelerator, magnetic separation system, fortune Defeated system, superconducting cable, transformer, superconduction supercomputer, aerospace and aviation applications etc..
