The design of the capacitor bank driven insert of the first 100 T non destr
uctive magnet is described. The coil is wound with 8 conductor layers, and
is internally reinforced with the multiphase alloy MP35N(TM) in combination
with a Zylon(TM) fiber/epoxy composite. The deformation of the conductor i
s limited by the high modulus reinforcements, therefore, the coil will oper
ate in the elastic state after conditioning. This ensures long magnet life.
The insert coil will be energized by a 2.3 MJ, 18 kV capacitor bank operat
ing at 15 kV, The mechanical deformation. heating and the magnetic field re
duction due to the eddy currents in the MP35N(TM) reinforcement are analyze
d.
