Abstract

The cryogenic system of the 6T superconducting Wiggler magnets at the Hefei National Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory was upgraded. During the upgrade process, the original copper leads of the superconducting Wiggler magnets are replaced with two 460A high-temperature superconducting current leads and three 20A high-temperature superconducting current leads, reducing the heat load of the cryogenic system. Five HTS current leads can be cooled using a GM cryocooler based on the optimal design and experimental verification of their current-carrying capability and heat load. According to the loading current experimental data, the running voltage and operating temperature are stable. The results of the overcurrent capacity experiments demonstrate that the maximum loading current of the 20A high-temperature superconducting current lead can reach 142A and that of the 460A high-temperature superconducting current lead can reach 780A.
