Progress in the Development of the Wuhan High Magnetic Field Center
2010
Overview
Since April 2008 the Wuhan High Magnetic Field Center (WHMFC) has been under development at the Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST) at Wuhan, China. It is funded by the Chinese National Development and Reformation Committee. Magnets with bore sizes from 12 to 34 mm and peak fields in the range of 50 to 80 T have been designed. The power supplies for these magnets are a capacitor bank with 12 modules of 1 MJ, 25 kV each and a 100 MVA/100 MJ flywheel pulse generator. The objective of the facility is to accommodate external users for extensive experiments in pulsed high magnetic fields. Up to seven measurement stations will be available at temperatures in the range from 50 mK to 400 K. The first prototype 1 MJ, 25 kV capacitor bank with thyristors, crowbar diodes and a mechanical switch has been developed and successfully tested. For the protection of the thyristor switch, a toroidal inductor is developed to limit the current at 40 kA. Five magnets have been wound with CuNb and copper wires and internal reinforcement by Zylon fiber; external reinforcement is a stainless steel shell encased by carbon fiber composite. Two Helium flow cryostats have been successfully tested and reached temperatures down to 4.2 K. Measurement stations for magneto-transport and magnetization are in operation. The design, construction and testing of the prototype system are presented.
