Fusion Pioneer Greg Brittles - What is 'quench' and how do we protect our HTS magnets against it?
Ғылым және технология
“Getting magnets up to field is often the easy part, getting them down from field in a hurry is the hard part”, says Greg Brittles, Tokamak Energy Principal Magnet Engineer. Avoiding ‘quench’ is the goal of all superconducting magnet engineers. In our latest fusion pioneer video, Greg explains what quench is and how we protect our pioneering high temperature superconducting (HTS) magnets against it.

yay, Bruck Rodgers is here
Something that could be learned and implemented in the ft-icr magnets...
Are these waterproof? Like, could I throw one off a ship?
I suspect your "partial insulation" is protected IP so not going to go into any details. Happy it works because a robust fail safe to protect such valuable investment increases the value of that investment.
magnets are getting silly now.

The idea isn't new. The term appeared many decades ago in relation to things like MRI machines.
