Optimization of Mechanical Supports for Large Superconductive Magnets

摘要: Load-bearing thermal insulators are often required in the construction of cryogenic dewars. Superconducting magnets some cases also require extensive use mechanical struts anchored low-temperature region on one end, while other end strut rests room temperature frames. One such extreme example occurs design superconductive solenoids for as energy storage magnets. Since cost a cold structure would be excessive, it is necessary to support bedrock (which free except minor excavation charges) by means epoxy-fiberglass struts. As an example, large unit requires that 14 × 106 metric tons force transmitted from 1.8 K conductors rock surfaces efficiently possible.
