Design of a cosine-theta dipole magnet wound with coated conductors considering their deformation at coil ends during winding process

Abstract

By using differential geometry, we modeled the three-dimensional shapes of the coil ends of cosine-theta magnets while considering local edge-wise bend, local flat-wise bend, and torsion of coated conductors. We focus on the feasibility of winding coil ends against the stress caused by bending. We discussed the feasibility of winding based on two assumptions to form coil ends: all turns of coated conductors are free from edge-wise bend; faces of all turns of coated conductors are completely parallel. Using the first assumption, we designed a cosine-theta dipole magnet wound with coated conductors.
