Abstract
A superconductive energy storage magnet requires a large quantity of low-thermal-conductive, high-load-carrying supporting structures to carry the radial and axial compressive loads from the 1.8 K magnet coils to room temperature bedrock.1–3 Engineering data is needed on low cost commercial composites for struts to be used in the superconductive energy storage magnet designs at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. The main properties are compressive strengths, delamination strengths, shear properties and compressive fatigue properties at cryogenic temperatures and room temperatures.4–7
