Apparatus for quench protection and damping stabilization in quasi-permanent superconducting magnets.

摘要

A superconducting magnet assembly comprises a superconducting magnet which, under working conditions, generates a magnetic field in a working volume. The superconducting magnet is connected in parallel with a series combination of a superconducting fault current limiter and a resistor, and with a DC power source. Under working conditions, the magnet can be energized by the power source to generate a desired magnetic field in the working volume.
