摘要

The powering of the High Luminosity magnets of the Large Hadron Collider relies on Cold Powering Systems incorporating direct current superconducting lines, called Superconducting Links, based on magnesium diboride cables. A Cold Powering System interconnects the magnets in the accelerator existing tunnel to the power converters in newly excavated galleries that are about 8 m higher than the accelerator tunnel and up to about 100 m distant from the magnets. It feeds circuits rated at different currents and is designed to transfer a total current of up to |117| kA with magnesium diboride and Rare-Earth-Barium-Copper-Oxide technologies. After about ten years of development, the first Cold Powering System was successfully constructed and tested at CERN. The Superconducting Link was measured in a geometrical configuration that included a vertical path simulating the final routing in the accelerator underground. The test campaign validated the mechanical, cryogenic and electrical performance of the system both in steady state conditions and under various transient scenarios. This paper reports on the results of the tests and details the performance of the first ever built magnesium diboride and Rare-Earth-Barium-Copper-Oxide 100 kA class superconducting system.
