| Popis: | report on wind-and-react (W&R) Bi 2 Sr 2 CaCu 2 O 8+x (Bi-2212) insert coils that were fabricated using a Canted-Cosine-Theta (CCT) coil technology. In the CCT technology, a conductor is wound into canted helical channels that are machined into cylindrical coil winding mandrels, thereby creating a cosine-theta current distribution and providing stress support at the conductor level. The prevention of stress accumulations by the internal structure of winding mandrels is considered an enabling technology for high field Bi-2212 insert coils that target the 20 T magnetic field range. We report on the fabrication and reaction of coils for two proof-of-principle Bi-2212 inserts, BIN1 and BIN2, each consisting of two CCT coils. The BIN1 coils use insulated 0.8 mm diameter wires and INCONEL 600 coil winding mandrels with a stainless steel 316 shell, an overall diameter of 50.0 mm and a clear bore of 35.3 mm. The BIN2 coils use insulated 6-around-1 cables from 0.8-mm diameter wires, and aluminum-bronze mandrels with an aluminum alloy 6061 shell, an overall outer diameter of 68.6 mm, and a clear bore of 38.8 mm. The coils are designed to study the fabrication, reaction, and impregnation in Bi-2212 CCT technology, and provide a baseline for a Rutherford cable-wound coil set (BIN3). These latter coils target an insert-coil set with optimized current density in the windings, to enable the construction of an 18 T Nb 3 Sn-Bi-2212 hybrid dipole magnet. |
