High field accelerator magnets for a future Very Large Hadron Collider are
being developed at Fermilab in collaboration with LBNL, and KEK, The goal o
f this work is to elaborate a Cost-effective Nb3Sn dipole magnet design and
technology which provide the nominal field of 11 T, This paper presents a
description of the magnetic design of the first short model including cable
and strand parameters, coil and yoke cross-section and magnet end geometry
. The results of field distribution and field quality calculations includin
g geometrical and random harmonics, Coil magnetization and iron saturation
effects are also reported.
