    摘要: A composite sealed vessel (12) is provided. The vessel includes a non-metallic, generally cylindrical inner containment piece (30), a non-metallic, generally cylindrical outer containment piece (28) disposed around the inner containment piece (30). A pair of non-metallic flanges (32, 34) are disposed at ends of the inner and outer containment pieces (28, 30) to form a closed structure defining a cavity (24) therein. The vessel also includes a metallic external lining (16, 18) disposed over the closed structure to form a leak-tight pressure boundary.

    摘要: A suspension system for a superconducting magnet (10) for supporting and spacing the thermal radiation shield (22) and vacuum vessel (12) about the cryogen vessel (22) utilizing a carbon fiber reinforced composite assembly (40) with a first frustro-conical member (42) positioned between the cryogen vessel and radiation shield and a second frustro-conical member (44) extending from the vacuum vessel to overlap the radiation shield with a radially extending connecting member (46) between the interior ends of the members to provide a tortuous generally Z-shaped lengthened thermal path and thermal resistance plus mechanical support in both the axial and radial directions.

    摘要: A system (20) and method for protecting a superconductor (12). The system (20) may comprise a current sensor (22) operable to detect a current flowing through the superconductor (12). The system (20) may comprise a coolant temperature sensor (24) operable to detect the temperature of a cryogenic coolant used to cool the superconductor (12) to a superconductive state. The control circuit (26) is operable to estimate the superconductor temperature based on the current flow and the coolant temperature. The system (20) may also be operable to compare the estimated superconductor temperature to at least one threshold temperature and to initiate a corrective action when the superconductor temperature exceeds the at least one threshold temperature.
