Structural Design and Analysis of Canted–Cosine–Theta Dipoles

Abstract

The Canted-Cosine-Theta (CCT) magnet design offer significant reductions in conductor stress by using mandrels t prevent the accumulation of operating Lorentz forces. Each mandre consists of a cylindrical spar with ribs guiding the conductor These ribs intercept the turn-To-Turn accumulation of forces b transferring them to the spar. Design studies of a layered CC coil pack coupled to a shell-based structure are shown. The us of a 3-D periodic symmetry region to reduce the problem size fo finite element modeling is detailed along with a discussion of axia boundary conditions. ANSYS calculation results for a two laye NbTi dipole being constructed at LBNL (CCT1) are presented ANSYS calculations show the Lorentz force induced stress i CCT1 at the single turn level, demonstrating interception an suggesting investigation of CCT design with minimal structur external to the coil pack.
