Abstract

PurposeThis paper describes the design of power supply system for superconducting wiggler in the project of high energy photon source-test facility. It includes three sets of high precision DC stabilized current power supplies for superconducting magnet excitation and three sets of quench protection assembly (QPA). A special magnetic load which has a very large time constant is studied in this paper. In this paper, a stable superconducting excitation power supply is developed, which can adjust the response quickly under the condition of very large load time constant. Meanwhile, the energy dissipation circuit of the QPA is integrated into the power supply in an active quenching protection mode to accelerate the energy release of the superconducting magnet and protect the superconducting magnet.MethodThe main circuit topology, control algorithm, quenching protection circuit and interlocking logic function are designed for the superconducting magnet with large inductance. The upper computer controls the switch of the three main power circuits through the serial port, sets the output current and adjusts the parameters according to the load.ConclusionThrough a series of scientific and rigorous experiments, the rationality of superconducting wiggler magnet power supply scheme is demonstrated. The output current stability test and output voltage ripple test of the power supply meet or exceed the requirements of the magnet system.
