Chattez avec Graph Search

Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.

AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.

Particle accelerators foresee the use of Nb3Sn in the next generation of dipole magnets. A common design strategy is to grade the coil, i.e., to optimize the quantity of superconductor in the turns with respect to the magnetic field intensity. As a consequ ...

Measurements of AC Loss Evolution in ITER TF Conductors

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Kamil Sedlák

AC loss in the Nb3Sn cable-in-conduit conductors (CICC) usually decreases after the conductor undergoes electromagnetic cycling. This can be attributed to the increase of inter-strand resistance due to the detachment of the strand-bonding during cyclic loa ...

Paschen failures in ITER, W7-X and JT60 superconducting coils at the acceptance tests have shown that it is highly desirable to lower the coil discharge voltage (U-d) of the DEMO Toroidal Field (TF) coils. Another benefit of lowering the U-d might be the r ...

Progress on Tests on Splices Between Nb3Sn Rutherford Cables for Graded High-Field Accelerator Magnets

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Mithlesh Kumar, Vincenzo D'Auria

Future high-field accelerator magnets foresee the extensive use of Nb3Sn, more expensive than the Nb-Ti of LHC. For projects involving the series production of magnets, conductor grading is mandatory in order to reduce the cost. To allow grading ...

Impact of mechanical and thermal cycles at different operating conditions on the ITER toroidal field coil conductor performance

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Kamil Sedlák

The impact of electromagnetic (EM) and thermal cyclic loading (referred as warm-up-cool-down-WUCD) on the Nb3Sn cable in conduit conductors for the toroidal field magnets of the ITER tokamak should be carefully assessed for the proper operation of the mach ...

Superconductors for fusion: a roadmap

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Kamil Sedlák, Nikolay Bykovskiy, Rainer Wesche

With the first tokamak designed for full nuclear operation now well into final assembly (ITER), and a major new research tokamak starting commissioning (JT60SA), nuclear fusion is becoming a mainstream potential energy source for the future. A critical par ...

A New Cabled Stabilizer for the Nb3Sn React&Wind DEMO Conductor Prototype

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Kamil Sedlák, Boris Stepanov, Mithlesh Kumar, Vincenzo D'Auria

A Nb3Sn based, React&Wind flat cable, named RW2, was developed in the past three years at the Swiss Plasma Center in the scope of the EUROfusion conceptual studies for DEMO. The test results presented earlier proved an excellent DC performance, but large e ...
