Final Design of a Superconducting MHD Magnet for the Coal-Fired Flow Facility at the University of Tennessee Space Institute

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Advances in Cryogenic Engineering ((ACRE,volume 35 A))

Abstract

The superconducting magnet system (SCMS) consists of a superconducting magnet, magnet cryostat, a helium refrigerator/liquefier facility, a helium gas-handling system, apparatus for cryogenic transfer and storage, a magnet power supply, an integrated instrumentation and control system including a computer for magnet operation, data acquisition, system status and diagnosis, and magnet protection. The complete system will be tested at Argonne and installed at the Coal-Fired Flow Facility (CFFF) at the University of Tennessee Space Institute (UTSI) in 1981. The cryogenic aspects and magnet safety are described and analyzed elsewhere [1,2].
