Abstract

The superconducting magnets were developed for all kinds of applications in China. With the growth of economy in China, some national projects of applied superconductivity are started in the basic sciences and engineering R&D in the recent years. The projects for the high magnetic field superconducting magnet applied in the scientific instruments, 40 T hybrid magnet system, high energy accelerator magnet, fusion engineering and special industrial system are supported by the central or local governments. For the high temperature superconductivity (HTSC) applications, some high temperature superconducting magnets were developed for fast charge and AC applications. The paper reviews the recent progress of superconducting magnet technology in China.
