Abstract
Hybrid magnets enable to achieve very high magnetic fields by combining resistive insert magnets with a large bore superconducting outer coil. In order to reduce the electromagnetic coupling between the coils, we introduce an eddy-current shield between the resistive and superconducting magnet. This additional shield is responsible for heat loads. To limit the degradation of the thermal behavior of the cold mass, an innovative support ferrule has been designed. It allows rigid connection of the eddy-current shield to the magnet structure. In this paper, the worst magnetic failure scenario is identified and modeled. It results in large transient forces applying to the structure. Transient mechanical analysis of the hybrid magnet structure featuring innovative support ferrule is presented. Simulations show that the proposed configuration leads to lower mechanical stresses than a configuration featuring a suspended shield.
