  1. ARIES CSMagnet definition L. Bromberg MIT Plasma Science and Fusion Center USCD November 18, 2005

  2. Costing • Issue that I was investigating: • Cost of complexity • No one at MIT had a handle on this issue • Stellarator magnets not previously costed • Weldenstein did not respond (Bosch) • But even if they had responded, it would have been not relevant, as they have tried to address design issues during construction • Will try to get information from the Japanese group in early December

  3. Conventional design • Nb3Sn, as in the baseline case • Cost ~ 1 $/KA m • Wind and react • MgB2 could also be used, and may be cheaper • Both materials are sensitive to strain

  4. However… • First generation HTS wires were BSCO 2223 based, difficult to grow, within a silver matrix • Costly (probably not less than about 10 $/kA m, even at high capacity) • For comparison, • NbTi today ~ < $1 /kA m • Nb3Sn ~ $5-10/kA m today, DoE goal ~ $1/kA m

  5. AMSC 344 conductor • Width Evolution:1 cm -> 4 cm -> 10 cm • Substrate: Ni-5%W alloy• • Deformation texturing- • Buffer stack: Y2O3/YSZ/CeO2 • High rate reactive sputtering • YBCO • Metal Organic Deposition of TFA• • ex-situ process • Ag • DC sputtering Developed in collaboration with MIT Prof. M. Cima of Department of Material Sciences

  6. 344 tape • Highly strain resistant • 1% strain tolerant, compared with 0.2% for other low temperature conductors • Cheaper materials that do not have to match the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) for the superconductor • I.e., conventional steels, instead of Incoloy 908 • Thus higher stresses in the superconductor material than in the structure • Note: 1% of a structure that is 10m is about 10 cm! • Deformations need to be included in the design • Simplified the design of the coil, as material is determined more from strain than from stresses • Substantial savings in structural materials

  7. Quench protection • For Nb3Sn (conventional design) • Quench protection by using large number of parallel coil circuits • High current operation • Discharge time ~ Emagnet/Ncoil circuits I Vmax • Requires large number of dump systems, feedthroughs • For ARIES-AT, we proposed the possibility of stabilization by paralleling coils • Concept not considered, used instead assumptions that quench will not occur because of design of conductor and large energy margins.

  8. Hyper tech MgB2

  9. MgB2 restacked 19 filaments conductor

  10. DoE SBIR • MgB2 • Possibility of collaborating with Hyper Tech in development of a test for fusion • Can we consider one of the highly deformed winding, scaled down? • 2nd generation wires • Using multiple tapes for winding small coil • Use ARIES-CS type of quench protection for low/intermediate temperature operation • Considered for ARIES-AT but not included in final design.
