Abstract

A 40 T hybrid magnet system will be built at the Chinese High Magnet Field Laboratory (CHMFL), Chinese Academy of Sciences. It will include a 29 T resistive insert with a clear bore of 32 mm and a 11 T superconducting outsert with a room temperature bore of 580 mm. The superconducting outsert, which will be wound with cable-in-conduit conductors (CICC), is graded in function of the magnetic field. The high field section of the superconducting outsert will use superconductors and the low field section will be made of NbTi superconductors. At present, the preliminary design of the superconducting outsert has almost been completed. This paper describes features, such as conductor design, coil winding, heat treatment, support structure design, mechanical stress analysis.
