MA7

This new 6.8 Tesla horizontal field cryomagnet has strong stray fields due to the size of its coils. Before it may be used on any instrument, force tests have to be done. The specifications allow forces up to 1000 N vertically and 500 N horizontally.

Restrictions on RITA-II

Provisional force measuremnents on RITA-II have shown that the operation of MA7 on Rita-II is allowed:

  • between 3.0 and 18.0 meV (a2 >= 37 deg) at a distance of 450 mm or more, up to 5 Tesla
  • between 3.0 and 8.0 meV (a2 >= 56 deg) at a distance of 450 mm or more, up to 5.5 Tesla
  • between 3.0 and 8.0 meV (a2 >= 56 deg) at a distance of 540 mm or more, up to 6.8 Tesla

For any other configuration force tests have to be done. Anyway, these measurments should be confirmed when an approriate adapter plate is avaliable.

Original data:

a2 [deg] distance [mm] field [Tesla] force [N]
56 540 4.8 230
56 450 3.4 180
37 450 3.4 220

How the distance has to be measured. In this example the distance is around 400 mm.

Restrictions on AMOR

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 (estimation: 5 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
<600 0 1.0
800 20 1.04
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.
