Abstract
| In the framework of the development of high field
magnets made of Nb3Sn superconductor for projects such as high
luminosity upgrade of the large hadron collider and future circular
collider studies, it is needed to refine the understanding of the coil
winding process and its impact on the overall mechanical behavior of the conductor.
For this purpose, a new cable winding setup
has been developed in order to compare the windability of
different Nb3Sn Rutherford cables. In addition, various geometrical
cable inspection methods were tested and compared.
First experimental results obtained with the new set-up for winding tests are summarized. |
