Comprehensive stress calculation method and system for water-cooled magnet Bitter sheet

[0001] Related applications

[0002] This disclosure claims the benefit of priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202311510763.6 filed on November 14, 2023 with the State Intellectual Property Office of China, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference for all purposes. Technical Field

[0003] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of water-cooled magnet simulation, and more specifically, to a method and system for calculating the comprehensive stress of a water-cooled magnet Bitter sheet. Background Art

[0004] Water-cooled magnets are an important component of steady-state strong magnetic field experimental facilities and the main experimental device of strong magnetic field laboratories. Due to their characteristics of high magnetic field intensity and fast field rise rate, water-cooled magnets have become a highly-regarded extreme conditions experimental platform. The current maximum magnetic field of water-cooled magnets can reach over 40T. Referring to Figures 1 to 4, the Bitter sheet 6 (as shown in Figure 1) and the insulating sheet 7 (as shown in Figure 2) are the two basic elements that make up the water-cooled magnet coil. The Bitter sheet 6 is provided with a plurality of Bitter sheet cooling water holes 3, and a radial slit 1 is provided. The outer edge of the Bitter sheet 6 has a plurality of Bitter sheet positioning holes 3. The insulating sheet 7 is provided with a plurality of insulating sheet cooling water holes 5, and the outer edge of the insulating sheet 7 has a plurality of insulating sheet positioning holes. According to the stacking method shown in Figure 3, the Bitter sheet 6 and the insulating sheet 7 are stacked in a specific regular staggered manner to form a spirally ascending current channel, thereby forming a water-cooled magnet coil (as shown in Figure 4).

[0005] Because Bitter inserts withstand significant electromagnetic forces, they are typically made of high-strength, high-conductivity copper alloys. Accurately calculating the stress distribution in Bitter inserts under electromagnetic forces is crucial for water-cooled magnet design. The paper "Design of the Resistive Insert for the Nijmegen 45 T Hybrid Magnet, IEEE Transactions on Applied Superconductivity, Vol. 30, No. 4, June 2020" proposes using a two-dimensional circularly symmetric model in ANSYS to calculate stress in Bitter inserts. However, this model only calculates stresses generated by electromagnetic forces along the radial direction and cannot account for the effects of axial electromagnetic pressure perpendicular to the plane of the Bitter insert and frictional forces between Bitter inserts on the stress distribution. Furthermore, this model ignores the presence of slits in the Bitter inserts and, consequently, their effect on the stress distribution. Consequently, this model results in significant stress errors and is unable to accurately calculate the true stress distribution in the Bitter inserts.

Thus, a first feature or element described below could be referred to as a second feature or element, and similarly, a second feature or element described below could be referred to as a first feature or element, without departing from the scope of this disclosure.

[0037] As shown in FIG5 , an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for calculating the comprehensive stress of a water-cooled magnet Bitter plate, the method comprising steps S10 to S40 .

[0038] In step S10 , a simplified coil model is constructed using a plurality of three-dimensional Bitter sheets with slits and no helix angle in finite element analysis software.

[0039] In this embodiment, the finite element analysis software used is ANSYS.

[0040] In step S20, the coil model is meshed to obtain mesh nodes.

[0041] In step S30, the meshed coil model is subjected to boundary conditions and load conditions before simulation, wherein the boundary conditions include applying corresponding node displacement coupling conditions to the slits of the Bitter sheets on the upper and lower end surfaces of the coil model and setting contact pairs on the contact surfaces between all Bitter sheets, wherein the contact pairs include conductor-insulating sheet contact pairs and conductor-conductor contact pairs, and the load conditions include loading electromagnetic force into all nodes of the coil model and applying axial force to the upper end surface of the coil model.

[0042] In step S40 , the stress distribution of the Bitter sheet is calculated based on the simulation results.

[0043] It should be noted that the related art simplifies the water-cooled magnet coil into a two-dimensional, circularly symmetric model of a Bitter sheet. This model, focusing on a single Bitter sheet, fails to calculate the effects of axial electromagnetic pressure perpendicular to the sheet plane and friction between the sheets on stress distribution. It also ignores the presence of slits in the sheet and, consequently, their effect on stress distribution. To achieve higher-precision stress distribution results and ideal computational accuracy, the complete water-cooled magnet model must be imported into finite element software (ANSYS) for simulation. However, since the water-cooled magnet coil is composed of thousands of staggered and stacked Bitter sheets and insulating sheets, the model requires a very large number of meshes, making it impossible for conventional computers to calculate.

[0044] In this embodiment, a three-dimensional Bitter sheet model with a slit and no helix angle is established in ANSYS software using the APDL language, and then a coil model is constructed based on the Bitter sheet model. When constructing the coil model, the tiny helix angle of the Bitter sheet in the coil is ignored, and contact pairs including conductor-insulating sheet contact pairs and conductor-conductor contact pairs are set on the contact surfaces between the Bitter sheets, thereby converting the helical surface contact into a planar contact and removing the insulating sheet structure. The water-cooled magnet coil structure is simplified as necessary to ensure a small computational complexity and high convergence of the finite element calculation model of the water-cooled magnet coil. Factors such as axial electromagnetic force, friction between Bitter sheets, and slits are incorporated into the stress calculation to simulate the radial electromagnetic force, axial electromagnetic force, friction between Bitter sheets, and slits on the Bitter sheet. This solves the problem of the influence of the axial electromagnetic force and slits on the stress distribution, making the calculated stress distribution of the Bitter sheet more accurate and more consistent with the actual stress distribution. This ensures that the coil model is sufficiently simplified while obtaining a more accurate stress distribution result.

[0045] Specifically, in this embodiment, the tiny helical angle of the Bitter sheet in the coil is first ignored, and a 3D Bitter sheet model with a slit and no helical angle is established in the finite element analysis software. At the same time, conductor-insulating sheet contact pairs and conductor-conductor contact pairs are set on the contact surfaces between the Bitter sheets in the boundary conditions to simulate the interaction scenario of the friction between the Bitter sheets, thereby replacing the insulating sheet structure in the coil model and simplifying the insulating sheet structure in the model. A simplified coil calculation model is formed by copying and rotating multiple 3D Bitter sheet models with no helical angle. The role of the simplified coil model is to: convert the helical surface contact into a plane contact and remove the insulating sheet structure, thereby improving the convergence of the finite element calculation; and to replace the complete coil with multiple Bitter sheets, thereby greatly reducing the amount of calculation. In addition, in this embodiment, factors such as axial electromagnetic force, friction between Bitter sheets, and slits are incorporated into the stress calculation, which solves the problem of the influence of axial electromagnetic force application and slits on stress distribution, making the calculated Bitter sheet stress distribution more accurate and more consistent with the actual stress distribution. Therefore, the comprehensive stress calculation method of the water-cooled magnet Bitter plate according to this embodiment can not only ensure that the coil model is sufficiently simplified but also solve the pain point problem of the 2D circularly symmetrical model of the Bitter plate.

[0046] In one embodiment, the method further comprises: setting the friction coefficient between the conductor-insulating sheet contact pair as the insulation contact surface friction coefficient, and setting the friction coefficient of the conductor-conductor contact pair as the conductor contact surface friction coefficient.

[0047] In this embodiment, different friction coefficients are used to define the contact surfaces between the Bitter sheets and the friction surfaces between the Bitter sheets and the insulating sheet, simplifying the insulating sheet in the coil model. Specifically, contact pairs are set between the contact surfaces of the Bitter sheets. The friction coefficient between the conductor-insulating sheet contact pair is set to the insulation contact surface friction coefficient, and the friction coefficient between the conductor-conductor contact pair is set to the conductor contact surface friction coefficient. This simulates the interaction of friction forces between the Bitter sheets.

[0048] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG6 , the coil model includes a plurality of Bitter sheets arranged sequentially from bottom to top, and the slit angle of each Bitter sheet increases by an insulation angle along the same direction.

[0049] Specifically, the insulation angle is the sector angle of the insulation sheet, which is determined according to the actual lamination of the coil.

[0050] In one embodiment, for example, five three-dimensional Bitter sheets with slits are assembled at specific angles to form a coil model, including Bitter sheets DISK1, DISK2, DISK3, DISK4 and DISK5 arranged from bottom to top, wherein the slit angles of DISK1 and DISK5 are both 180 degrees, and the slit angles of DISK2, DISK3, and DISK4 are 360-a degrees, 0 degrees, and a degrees, respectively, where a is the fan angle of the insulating sheet.

[0051] Specifically, between the Bitter sheet DISK1 and the Bitter sheet DISK2, the contact surface pair with a contact angle of 360-2a to 360-a is a conductor-insulating sheet contact pair, and the corresponding friction coefficient is fm-i; the contact surface pair with a contact angle of 0 to 360-2a and 360-a to 360 is a conductor-conductor contact pair, and the corresponding friction coefficient is fm-m.

[0052] Between the Bitter sheet DISK2 and the Bitter sheet DISK3, the contact pair with a contact angle of 360-a to 360 is a conductor-insulating sheet contact pair, and the friction coefficient is fm-i; the contact pair with a contact angle of 0 to 360-a is a conductor-conductor contact pair, and the friction coefficient is fm-m.

[0053] Between the Bitter sheet DISK3 and the Bitter sheet DISK4, the contact pair with a contact angle of 0 to a is a conductor-insulating sheet contact pair, and the friction coefficient is fm-i; the contact pair with a contact angle of a to 360 is a conductor-conductor contact pair, and the friction coefficient is fm-m.

[0054] Between the Bitter sheet DISK4 and the Bitter sheet DISK5, the contact pair with a contact angle of a to 2a is a conductor-insulating sheet contact pair, and the friction coefficient is fm-i; the contact pair with a contact angle of 0 to a and 2a to 360 is a conductor-conductor contact pair, and the friction coefficient is fm-m.

[0055] In one embodiment, applying corresponding node displacement coupling conditions to the slits of the Bitter sheet on the upper and lower end surfaces of the coil model includes: coupling the corresponding node displacements on the slits of the Bitter sheet located on the upper and lower end surfaces of the coil model respectively; setting the axial displacement of all nodes on the Bitter sheet on the lower end surface to 0, and limiting all displacements of the node with the largest node number on the Bitter sheet on the lower end surface to 0.

[0056] Specifically, this embodiment couples the displacements of corresponding nodes on the two surfaces of the DISK1 and DISK5 slits, that is, the displacements of corresponding nodes on the two surfaces are equal; and sets the axial displacements of all nodes on the lower end surface of DISK1 to 0, limiting all displacements of the node with the largest node number on DISK1 to 0, that is, the displacements in the x-axis, y-axis, and z-axis directions are all 0.

[0057] Specifically, a 5-disk model was constructed by assembling five Bitter sheets. The stack simulated the frictional interaction between the sheets. Disk 1 through Disk 5 served as the top and bottom sheets, respectively. Contact pairs were established between all contact surfaces in Disk 1 through Disk 5, introducing friction conditions. Disk 1 and Disk 5 were subjected to corresponding nodal displacement coupling conditions for the slits. The calculation essentially removed the slits, achieving full 360-degree continuity. The model simulated the synchronous radial expansion of Disk 1 and Disk 5 under electromagnetic force. An insulation angle was added in the same direction between adjacent sheets, Disk 2, Disk 3, and Disk 4, simulating a realistic arrangement in a coil stack. No restrictions were placed on the slits in Disk 2, Disk 3, and Disk 4, resulting in a superposition of radial expansion and cantilever-like motion of the slits.

[0058] Disk 1 is in contact with Disk 2 on only one side. Disk 1 simulates radial expansion and cantilever-like motion due to friction. Disk 2 is in contact with Disk 1 and Disk 3. Disk 2 itself expands radially and moves in a cantilever-like manner. Disk 1 expands radially, while Disk 3 expands radially and moves in a cantilever-like manner. Disk 2 simulates radial expansion on one side and cantilever-like motion on the other side due to friction. Disk 3 is in contact with Disk 2 and Disk 4. Disk 3, Disk 2, and Disk 4 all expand radially and move in a cantilever-like manner. Disk 3 simulates radial expansion on both sides and cantilever-like motion due to friction. This condition is consistent with the actual operating conditions of the bitter plate in the coil. Therefore, the stress state of Disk 3 is the actual stress state we need to wait for.

[0059] It should be noted that this embodiment simulates the radial electromagnetic force, axial electromagnetic force, friction between Bitter plates, and slits on the Bitter plate. The calculated stress distribution of the Bitter plate is more accurate and more consistent with the actual stress distribution. Figure 7 shows the local stress concentration phenomenon (gray part in the figure) formed by DISK1 under the action of friction; Figure 8 shows the distribution law of stress in the circumferential direction when DISK3 has slits.

[0060] In this example, a stack of five Bitter sheets was used to simulate the frictional interaction between the sheets. Nodal displacement coupling conditions were applied to the slits in the Bitter sheets on the upper and lower end faces of the coil model. The calculation essentially removed the slits, achieving full 360-degree continuity. This simulated the synchronous radial expansion of the Bitter sheets on the upper and lower end faces under the action of electromagnetic forces. For the Bitter sheet between the upper and lower end faces, an insulation angle was added in the same direction between adjacent sheets to simulate the actual arrangement of the coil sheets. No restrictions were placed on the slits in the Bitter sheet between the upper and lower end faces. This ensured that the operating conditions of the Bitter sheets in the coil model were consistent with those of the actual Bitter sheets in water-cooled magnet coils.

[0061] Each step of the above method can be performed by any suitable device that can perform the corresponding function. These devices may include various hardware and / or software components and / or modules, including but not limited to circuits, application specific integrated circuits (ASICs) or processors.
