Validation quench propagation 1/2
• All concerned magnets use the same strand/insulation/impregnation – wire#3.
• RQTD/F and RQTL circuits are the most critical (assumption later proven by simulation).
• Bloc 4 data of initial voltage rise up to 2 V available at 400 A and 600 A from magnet training, as well as current decays.• Top = 4.2 K, Rcrowb = 27 mΩ, Uth = 50 mV, Δtdiscr = 10 ms
• ROXIE thermal model: • transversal discretization: 1 temperature node per turn.• ROXIE longitudinal discretization: coarse (6cm) to limit computation time.
• QP3 used to compare longitudinal propagation velocity for 1 mm (converged) and 6 cm discretization at different current- and field levels.

Worst-case protection scenario• Show that magnets are protected by FGC and parallel
resistors alone, i.e., Tmax < 200 K.
• Magnet protection is virtually independent from QPS thresholds; we model for Uth = 1 V, Δtdiscr = 200 ms.
• Determine maximal permissible QPS thresholds for protection of busbars.
• The resulting limits can only improve the protection of the magnets.
![Page 14: Upper limits for QPS thresholds for selected 600 A circuits](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56814d2d550346895dba5d6d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
RQTD/F, Iq = 600 A• Circuit: 8 magnets, R// = 0.25 Ω, REE = 0.7 Ω, Rcrowb = 0.05 Ω, Rlead = 0.006 Ω
• FGC: Δtperiod = 80 ms, Vmax = 10 V, ΔImax = 10 A.
• QPS: Vth = 1 V, Δtdiscr = 200 ms
![Page 15: Upper limits for QPS thresholds for selected 600 A circuits](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56814d2d550346895dba5d6d/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Summary magnet protection
Case Tmax
RQTD/F, Iq = 600 A 140 K
RQTD/F, Iq = 400 A 80 K
RQTD/F, Iq = 600 A, R// failure 235 K
RQTL, Iq = 600 A 140 K
RQTD/F, Iq = 600 A, R// failure 146 K
RQTL, Iq = 400 A 110 K
RSS, Iq = 600 A 115 K
RO, Iq = 600 A 120 K
• Due to large cu/sc ratio and low position on the loadline (max ~60%), magnets are very robust.
• FGC and R// provide ultimate protection, virtually independently from QPS thresholds.
• Failure of R// • is VERY unlikely – robust design!• would not be fatal.
• R// is dimensioned to absorb the energy of an entire RQTD/F circuit with Tmax = 400 K.
• Also studied:• HF/LF quench locations;• different quench timing w.r.t.
FGC regulation period;• neither has significant impact.

Protection of the 600 A busbar
Worst case scenario: Quench starts in a thermally insulated part of the bus.Quench propagates not or slowly outside the insulated part (so good cooling to LHe).Global voltage built-up is small even though local hot-spot can be high.

Recommendation• The busbar protection defines the upper limit
for QPS thresholds of all studied circuits:
Uth ≤ 0.8 V, Δtdiscr ≤ 190 ms
• Respecting these limits, set thresholds to the lowest practicable values.

RQTL• RQTL9: 2 magnets, R// = 0.2 Ω, REE = 0.7 Ω, Rcrowb = 0.05 Ω,
Rlead = 0.002 Ω
• RQTL7-8/10-13: 1 magnets, R// = 0.2 Ω, no EE, Rcrowb = 0.05 Ω, Rlead = 0.002 Ω
• FGC: Δtperiod = 100 ms, Vmax = 10 V, ΔImax = 10 A.
• QPS: Vth = 1 V, Δtdiscr = 200 ms
• In the Δtdiscr = 200 ms / POWERING_FAILURE scenario, REE is not instrumental. We study RQTL9 as a worst case.

IFCL induced quenches during FPA in RQTD/F
• Preliminary study: to avoid quenches up to 600 A, REE would need to be reduced to 0.1 Ω.
• Any reduction in REE reduces the number of quenches and the test voltages.
• Busbar protection calculation assumed REE = 0.23 Ω.
