- Provisional force measuremnents on AMOR have shown that |
- the operation of MA7 on AMOR is allowed with a field perpendicular |
- to the beam at least __up to 4 Tesla__. |
- The distance to the shielding wall between AMOR and SANS-II has |
- to be at least 540 mm, measured from the aluminium window |
- (or about 870 mm to the magnet centre). |

- ''Torque Calculations'' |
- |
- In general, the forces are not only radial, but also tangential, |
- inducing a torque onto the magnet. For estimating the forces |
- on the fixation, we need to take into account the distance of |
- the fixation points from the coil center. |
- |
- For MA7, with a mean coil radius of about 100 m and fixation points |
- at about 150 mm for the coil center, we get the following: |
- |
- Ro: object distance (mm)\\ |
- phi: angle (deg) between field direction and direction of object, for maximum force on fixation\\ |
- Fp: force when object on magnet axis (in field direction) |
- Ft: maximum total force on fixation |
- |
- ||Ro ||phi ||Ft / Fp |

- | 1000 | 27 | 1.13 |
- | 1200 | 32 | 1.25 |
- |
- For the distance to the shielding wall we have to add 1/5 of the edge |
- distance for the mean distance of the material that has to be taken |
- into account (870 * 6/5 = 1044 mm). |
- |
- Measured force at 3.4 Tesla: 180 N.\\ |
- Extrapolated to 5 Tesla: 390 N.\\ |
- Factor 1.2 for including torque: 470 N.\\ |
- With a reasonable security margin, we allow to go __up to 4 Tesla__. |
