Abstract :
The main design features of the 1-m-long Nb3Sn superconducting dipole model for the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are presented. The magnets are designed to operate at 4.2 K with a nominal field of about 9-10 T. After describing the general design of the model magnet, the authors discuss electrical and mechanical computations, short-model tests, cable tests, and coil-winding experience
