Abstract

Two series-connected hybrid (SCH) magnets are under development at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory. The first SCH is for the Helmholtz Centre Berlin (HZB) in Germany. The HZB SCH will be a horizontal bore, 30 T magnet and will be used for neutron scattering experiments. The second SCH is for the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory (NHMFL) in Tallahassee, FL. The NHMFL SCH will be a vertical bore, 36 T magnet. Both SCH Magnets combine a set of resistive Florida-Bitter coils with a superconducting outsert coil constructed of cable-in-conduit conductor (CICC). The two SCH magnets are designed for various operating scenarios including those with multiple ramp cycles at various rates. Both of the superconducting magnets are forced flow cooled with supercritical helium at 4.5 K. A standard refrigerator with a capacity of about 150-200 W at 4.5 K will be used to supply the cooling power and the forced mass flow rate. The cryogenic system of the SCH magnet consists of a helium refrigerator, a valve box with subcooler, a magnet cryostat and cryolines. In this paper, the design of the cryogenic system is described.
