Wind‐and‐react processes offer a cost‐effective means of fabricating large‐scale Nb3Sn magnets, while also eliminating the need to manipulate the brittle superconductor after the high‐temperature reaction process. Composite Technology Development, Inc. (CTD) has developed a hybrid inorganic/organic insulation system that can be co‐processed with the Nb3Sn magnet at elevated temperatures. In this work, a new process was demonstrated for applying a thin, ceramic‐based insulation that is compatible with wind‐and‐react processing. The insulation was applied to Rutherford cables using a continuous manufacturing process, and cable assemblies (i.e., 10‐stacks) were fabricated and tested. The results of this work show that the insulation possesses a high strain tolerance, as well as the dielectric strength and fatigue resistance needed for high‐field magnet applications. |
