  • Abstract
    Quench simulation method for large magnet systems has been developed. Using commercially available FEM program, ANSYS, a script program with a new algorithm was introduced to perform the complete simulation of the quench process of superconducting magnets. The method was successfully tested with ATLAS central solenoid and applied for the design of the mu2eDS magnet at Fermilab. The mu2eDS magnet is found safe against any quench situations.
