Abstract
A prototype thin superconducting solenoidal magnet for the SDC detecto r (Solenoidal Detector Collaboration for the former SSC project) was d eveloped. The magnet was cooled down and excited up to 12,000A in the performance test at KEK. The magnet is 3.8 m in diameter, 2 m in lengt h with a total cold mass of 4.5 tomes. It was cooled by using indirect two-phase helium flow passing through a 64 m serpentine cooling path, The hydrodynamic characteristics has been investigated, The measured result and preliminary analysis are discussed.
