摘要
The High-temperature Superconducting (HTS) magnet is one of the most promising technologies to accommodate various high field applications. With the high magnetic field, the quench problem of HTS material should be considered with extra care, and the specific quench protection scheme should be projected. In this article, the modeling of the quench protection of an HTS magnet for the MRI system is presented. The modeling strategy was composed of two stages: Stage 1 the HTS magnet was in the normal operation circuit, and Stage 2 the HTS magnet was switched to the heat dissipation circuit. The 1st stage was based on the finite element method (FEM) using the H-formulation together with the thermal-coupled model, which simulated the current distribution of typical HTS tapes and showed the process of temperature increase when the hot source occurred. The 2nd stage was based on the analytical model to investigate the reasonable damping resistance and the hot spot temperature of the HTS magnet.
