Abstract
Time-varying fields in fast-ramping magnets for accelerators are difficult to compute in the range of accuracy required for magnet operation. This is due to the complexity of the dynamic phenomena such as hysteresis and 3D eddy currents. On the other hand, magnetic measurements that intercept all these physical phenomena are often limited to a subset of excitation cycles and restricted spatial domains. The measurement results are therefore difficult to extrapolate without a validated physical model of the device.This paper proposes measurement-updated field simulations to characterize dynamic effects in accelerator magnets. The main idea is to construct a reduced-order model, whose variables are retrievable from measurements by means of a state estimator, and to update the model by minimizing the error between simulations and measurements. The proposed method is applied to a linear, time-transient electromagnetic-field problem of an air–coil corrector magnet with aluminium collars. The proposed method is a first step towards a hybrid twin of an accelerator magnet.
