Abstract

PURPOSE:To permit the greater part of energy to be consumed by a protecting resistor through a thyristor, by inserting a thyristor in series to a protecting resistor and firing the thyristor with a voltage generated by a superconductive magnet coil in an abnormal state. CONSTITUTION:A thyristor 9 and a resistor 10 are connected so as to be opposite in polarity to a DC power source 4 and in parallel to a superconducting magnet coil 1 and a permanent current switch 2. A voltage E generated when the coil is in an abnormal state is converted into a pulse signal by means of a converter. The pulse signal is utilized as a thyristor-firing pulse thereby to allow energy to be consumed by the thyristor 9 and the resistor 10 connected thereto in series.

Conventional technology and its problems As a protection device for a superconducting magnet, as shown in FIG. It has reduced energy consumption, prevented magnet disconnection, and suppressed explosive evaporation of liquid helium. This idea is the same when the superconducting magnet is used in persistent current mode using persistent current switch 2.

However, if we follow the above-mentioned concept, the resistance value of the persistent current switch (in contrast, the external resistance must be sufficiently small.Currently, persistent current switches that are highly reliable and can withstand repeated use C: Thermal persistent current switches, which can withstand this large amount of energy and which are the only ones in practical use, have a resistance of several ohms to several tens of ohms. Since the external protection resistance must be sufficiently low, for example, in order to receive more than 90 degrees of energy outside the cryostat 5, a resistance of 1/10 must be taken. This means that in order to excite the superconducting coil with a DC power source, a voltage of L di/dt is required for C2, and this value results in a large current being shunted to a protective resistor with a low resistance value.

Because of this shunt, it is necessary to wait until there is no more shunt in order to send a predetermined current to the superconducting magnet, and the coil consumes a lot of stored energy (if you do not take the time determined by the L/H time constant, There were problems such as the inability to release energy.There were also methods such as coil current control to shorten the time.New equipment was required to shorten the waiting time. None of these provide a fundamental solution.
