Magnetic field distribution for two conductors (1. in superconducting state, but without current, 2.

Magnetic field distribution for two conductors (1. in superconducting state, but without current, 2. is with 100 A current) The maximum field from one superconducting tape is about 0, 02 T. Magnetic field distribution for two conductors, both with 100 A current. Bmax is about 0, 04 T. Taking into account the magnetic field value generated by those superconducting tapes, One can see, that Ic. max value is decreasing about 30 -40%.

DECRIS Magnetic field gradient up to 100 T/m It can work continuos for several years Using crycooler cooling causes bigger automation and it is decreasing the cost of upkeep

 Because of necessity of keeping up magnetic field homogeneity, often superconducting key blockers

Because of necessity of keeping up magnetic field homogeneity, often superconducting key blockers are used. They are closing the electric circuit after supply magnets. It freezes a magnetic flux generated by electromagnet. Umożliwiają odłączenie układu zasilania przy zachowaniu strumienia magnetycznego.

Superconducting shields Superconductors can be used to shield magnetic field. Shielding can be explained

Superconducting shields Superconductors can be used to shield magnetic field. Shielding can be explained by pushing up the magnetic field outside the superconductor - Meisner effect.

To increase magnetic field homogeneity opened magnetic shields are used. They are planed to

To increase magnetic field homogeneity opened magnetic shields are used. They are planed to be used at the electron cooling system of ion beam at the NICA project.
