This paper describes a model flux pump experiment recently performed at the MIT Francis Bitter Magnet Laboratory. The results of the model flux pump will be used in the development of a prototype flux pump that will be couple to a high-temperature superconductor (HTS) insert coil of a high-field NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) magnet, Such an HTS insert is unlikely to operate in persistent model because of the conductors low index(n) The flux pump can compensate fro field decay in the HTS insert coil and make the insert operate effectively in persistent mode . The flux pump, comprised essentially of a transformer an two switches. all made of superconductor, transfers into the insert coil a fraction of a magnetic energy that is first introduced in the secondary circuit of the transformer by a current supplied to the primary circuit. A model flux pump has been designed. fabricated, and operated to demonstrate that a flux pump can indeed supply a small metered current into a load superconducting magnet. A current increment in the range of microamperes has been measured in the magnet after each pumping action. The superconducting model flux pump is made of Nb$_3$ Sn tape, The pump is placed in a gaseous environment above the liquid helium level to keep its heat dissipation from directly discharged in the liquid: the effluent helium vapor maintains the thermal stability of the flux pump.

고해상도의 NMR 연구 개발을 위해서는 고자장의 마그넷연구가 선행되어야 한다. 고자장을 구현하기 위해서는 저온초전도체를 이용한 마그넷뿐만이 아니라 고온초전도체를 이용한 인서트 코일의 연구가 필요하다. 연세대학교에서는 국가지정연구실사업으로 단백질 구조 규명의 초고자장 NMR 실현을 위한 고온초전도 인서트 코일 기술연구를 진행하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 고온초전도 인서트 코일 연구를 위해 제작할 LTS background magnet과 HTS 인서트 코일에 대한 전자장 해석을 진행하였다. 균일도나 선재 사양 등의 주요 변수 등을 고려하여 LTS background magnet과 HTS 인서트 코일에 적합한 사양을 결정하도록 하였다.

NMR over 1 GHz (23.5 T) level has difficulties in design and fabrication with only low temperature superconducting (LTS) wire because of its material characteristics such as the decay of critical current under the magnetic field. Because High temperature superconducting (HTS) tape has a good performance under the extremely high magnetic field, it has been developed for high-field magnet over 23.5 T. In this paper, the LTS magnet was made for applying magnetic fields externally and the HTS coil was designed and fabricated. The electromagnetic field analysis has been done with respect to the structure and the operating current of the LTS and HTS coil. Considering to the field homogeneity and the center field, the design parameters which is suitable for the HTS coil were found. The HTS insert coil was impregnated with epoxy resin in order to prevent the movement of winding during energizing the magnet. The hybrid magnet (LTS/HTS) magnet was fabricated and tested based on the design parameters. The experimental result shows that the LTS background magnet and the HTS insert coil can be operated stable beyond 220 A and 210 A. The final value 4.32 T at the center was acquired.

We designed and manufactured a 1.8T high temperature superconducting(HTS) insert coil for a NMR magnet operated at 4.2 K. Suitable HTS superconductor and HTS coil were carefully designed and developed. We have selected multi-filamentary Bi2223 conductor fabricated by American Superconductor Corporation(AMSC). The selected conductor consists of Bi2223 filaments of 55, silver stabilizer and stainless steel reinforcement tapes. Therefore, it shows good hoop strength as well as compression tolerance. The conductor has a tape cross-section of 0.31mm x 4.8mm. the Bi2223 conductor shows large anisotropy of critical current. The critical current of conductor in magnetic field parallel to the flat surface are much higher than that in magnetic field perpendicular. The HTS coil has an inner diameter of 78 mm, an outer diameter of 127 mm and a coil length of 600 mm. In this paper, the detailed design, fabrication and test results on the HTS insert coil are presented.

We fabricated Bi-2223/Ag superconductor tape with 55 filaments and estimated the magnetic field dependence of critical current (I$_{c}$) and index n (n) up to 30 T at 4.2 K. The I$_{c}$ and n were characterized as a function of external magnetic field parallel to the tape surface on increasing and decreasing field, using a 35 T hybrid magnet. The $I_{c}$ was estimated to be 325 A, and n was 32, 22, and 26 in the electric field range of $0.1 ∼1\mu$V/cm, 1∼10 $\mu$V/cm, and 0.1∼10 $\mu$V/cm, respectively, under self-field at 4.2 K. It was observed that $I_{c}$ was dependent on magnitude of magnetic field and it decreased exponentially as the field increased; in a parallel and increasing field, It was 128 A at 30 T which is approximately 40% of critical current in self-field. In addition, the $I_{c}$ was higher on decreasing field than that on increasing one. On the other hand, n did not significantly depend on field strength up to 30 T, nor varied on whether increasing or decreasing field; n value in 0.1∼1 $\mu$V/cm was 23.0$\pm$5.2 and 27.8$\pm$8.0 on increasing and decreasing field, respectively. The n value on decreasing magnetic field was slightly higher than that on increasing field. This hysteretic behavior of n was similar to that of$ I_{c}$, which is related to the trapped flux at the grain boundary.ary.
