Abstract

EuroCirCol is a conceptual design study for a post-LHC research infrastructure based on an energy-frontier 100 TeV circular hadron collider. In the frame of the high field accelerator magnet design work package of this study, three different layouts for double-aperture dipole magnets made of Nb 3 Sn conductors and providing a field of 16 T in a 50-mm aperture are being considered: block-coils, common-coils, and cosine-theta. All options are being explored and will be compared based on the same assumptions, in particular with regards to conductor performance, operating temperature and margin. This paper details the block-option presently under development at CEA. After an exploratory phase of various block-coils possibilities (cable dimensions, number of layers, cable grading) the design converged to a four layer magnet. An internal grading-two different geometries of cables are used in the coil-driven by a conductor saving is required. An electromagnetic analysis of the magnet cross-section in a 2-in-1 configuration is performed, coupled to a protection investigation. Preliminary results of a mechanical study on a bladder-and-key single aperture magnet are also reported.
