Abstract

A High Temperature Superconductor (HTS) based cryorefrigerator assisted steering magnet sunder development at VECC for the extraction beam line of K500 cyclotron. The magnet designed is specified for ± 3 degree horizontal correction and ± 1.5 degree of vertical correction of the beam of maximum rigidity of 3.3 T-m. The magnet is composed of two sets of double pancake racetrack coil-one set for vertical field (By) and other for horizontal field inside the return iron yoke. Double pancake coils are fabricated in-house using BSCCO-2223 HTS tapes by wet winding technique using cryogenic grade epoxy. The critical characteristics of the coils are tested at liquid nitrogen temperature in terms of critical current and index parameters. The paper describes the winding details of double pancake coils and test results at liquid nitrogen temperature.
