Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The embodiments of the present invention relate to the field of optical fiber detection technology, and in particular to a method for detecting quench of a distributed optical fiber embedded in a superconducting magnet. Background Art
[0002] Superconducting magnets are complex structures and require complex fabrication processes. When operating in extreme multi-field environments such as extremely low temperatures, strong magnetic fields, and high currents, various instabilities, including electromagnetic effects, mechanical stress, and heat loss, can easily cause superconducting magnets to quench. Furthermore, high-temperature superconducting materials are ceramic composites with high heat capacity and stability margins, making the propagation of quenches in high-temperature superconducting magnets very slow. This makes it very easy for localized hot spots to form within the magnets, potentially burning them out. Therefore, a fast and effective quench detection, location, and identification system is required to make timely and accurate judgments about superconducting magnet quenches, providing key parameters for ensuring the healthy operation of superconducting magnets and their subsequent optimized design. Currently, distributed fiber optic sensors offer advantages such as small size, light weight, long detection distance, and resistance to electromagnetic interference. However, they have not yet been embedded between the turns of superconducting magnets, making it difficult to quickly and effectively detect quenches continuously, accurately locate the source of the quench, or help identify the primary cause of the quench.

[0043] Example 1,
[0044] Figure 1-6 A first embodiment of a distributed optical fiber embedded in a superconducting magnet quench detection method of the present invention is shown. The method comprises:
[0045] 101. Embedding a first optical fiber and a second optical fiber into a superconducting magnet, wherein the first optical fiber and the second optical fiber have different temperature sensitivity coefficients and strain sensitivity coefficients. In step 101, embedding the first optical fiber and the second optical fiber into the superconducting magnet comprises: connecting one end of the first optical fiber and the second optical fiber to an optical fiber demodulator, opening optical fiber data acquisition software, bonding the other ends of the first optical fiber and the second optical fiber to the surface of the superconducting magnet wire, performing force calibration, and recording the absolute position displayed by the optical fiber at the force calibration point as X0; wherein the first optical fiber is passed through a metal capillary and then bonded to the surface of the superconducting magnet wire.

[0049] Example 2,
[0050] Based on the above embodiment 1, see Figure 2-3 In this embodiment, a first optical fiber and a second optical fiber are embedded in a superconducting magnet, wherein the first optical fiber and the second optical fiber have different temperature sensitivity coefficients and strain sensitivity coefficients. Specifically, the first optical fiber and the second optical fiber can be optical frequency domain scatterometers, and the two optical frequency domain scatterometers are embedded in the superconducting magnet, and the positions of the first optical fiber and the second optical fiber are calibrated; wherein the superconducting magnet can be a YBCO superconducting magnet;
[0051] In one implementation of this embodiment, two identical optical frequency domain scatterometers are embedded within a superconducting magnet. One optical frequency domain scatterometer, or the first optical fiber, is pre-threaded into the superconducting magnet's metal capillary and is sensitive only to temperature signals. The other optical frequency domain scatterometer, or the second optical fiber, is directly bonded to the surface of the superconducting magnet's wire and is sensitive to both applied temperature and strain signals. Furthermore, the two optical frequency domain scatterometers can have different temperature and strain sensitivities. Subsequently, the first optical fiber with the metal capillary is also bonded to the surface of the superconducting wire / material. One end of each optical frequency domain scatterometer is connected to a demodulator, and monitoring software is activated on a computer. The force applied to the other end of the optical frequency domain scatterometer bonded to the superconducting magnet's wire is then calibrated, and the optical fiber monitoring software records the position of the optical fiber at that point as the origin X0. Two optical frequency domain scatterometers are embedded between turns of the superconducting magnet. After the first layer / turn of the superconducting magnet wire is wound, the optical fiber bonded to the surface is recorded using fiber monitoring software as X1. Following this method, the corresponding end positions of the embedded optical fiber for the second, third, fourth, and nth layers / turns are calibrated as X2, X3, X4, and so on. Once the superconducting magnet is wound, the optical fiber transmission lines of the two optical frequency domain scatterometers are led out along the current leads of the superconducting magnet wire, and the optical frequency domain scatterometers are naturally embedded between the turns of the superconducting magnet. Finally, epoxy resin is used to cure the superconducting magnet.
[0052] Example 3,
[0053] Based on the above embodiment 1, see Figure 4 , using an optical fiber demodulator to collect optical fiber signals of the first optical fiber and the second optical fiber in real time, and measuring the optical fiber signals to obtain temperature information and strain information of the superconducting magnet, including: obtaining a first frequency signal Δν1, a first strain sensitivity coefficient Kε1, and a first temperature sensitivity coefficient KT1 of the first optical fiber; obtaining a second frequency signal Δν2, a second strain sensitivity coefficient Kε2, and a second temperature sensitivity coefficient KT2 of the second optical fiber; calculating temperature information and strain information according to the first frequency signal Δν1, the first strain sensitivity coefficient Kε1, the first temperature sensitivity coefficient KT1, the second frequency signal Δν2, the second strain sensitivity coefficient Kε2, and the second temperature sensitivity coefficient KT2; and outputting the temperature information and strain information to optical fiber data acquisition software.
[0054] The temperature information and strain information are calculated according to the first frequency signal Δν1, the first strain sensitivity coefficient Kε1, the first temperature sensitivity coefficient KT1, the second frequency signal Δν2, the second strain sensitivity coefficient Kε2, and the second temperature sensitivity coefficient KT2, using the following formula:
[0055]
[0056] Among them, Δε is the strain information and ΔT is the temperature information.
[0057] Example 4,
[0058] Based on the above-mentioned embodiment 1 or 3, this embodiment specifically determines whether a superconducting magnet has quenched based on temperature information, including: obtaining the temperature information of the superconducting magnet at the start of excitation; determining whether the temperature information exceeds a preset quench temperature threshold, and if so, determining whether the temperature change rate exceeds the temperature change rate threshold, and if so, determining that the superconducting magnet has quenched; otherwise, no processing is performed and the temperature information is continued to be monitored. Specifically, the optical frequency domain scatterometer is embedded in the quench detection logic between the turns of the superconducting magnet, including: turning on the optical fiber demodulator and the computer, collecting data in real time and providing them to the computer for calculation and processing, and calculating the temperature value (T op ), the measured temperature signal is used as the quench detection signal. When the measured temperature signal exceeds the quench threshold of the superconducting magnet (T op ≥T c ), and then calculate the temperature change rate of the superconducting magnet from the initial temperature at the beginning of excitation to the quench threshold When both the measured temperature value and the temperature change rate exceed the quench threshold It can be considered that the YBCO superconducting magnet has quenched.
[0059] In one implementation of the above embodiment, see Figure 5 Determining the superconducting magnet quench threshold involves selecting a short superconducting magnet test sample, subjecting it to the same cooling method, and conducting an excitation test. Using a heater on the sample, the sample is randomly triggered to quench, and the voltage and temperature signals across the superconducting magnet sample are monitored in real time. The temperature at which the measured voltage reaches 1μV / cm is the temperature quench threshold. The ratio of the temperature change before and after the quench is triggered to the time interval is the temperature change rate threshold.
[0060] In an alternative approach, see Figure 6The optical frequency domain scatterometer is embedded in the turns of a superconducting magnet layer to locate the quench, including: when the superconducting magnet quenches, the temperature value measured by the optical frequency domain scatterometer shows a sharp upward trend after the quench, then drops sharply after reaching a maximum value, and gradually recovers to the initial excitation temperature, that is, when it presents a Gaussian distribution, the corresponding optical fiber position is the location where the superconducting magnet first quenches. The quench position of the superconducting magnet is determined based on the temperature information, including: collecting temperature information through optical fiber data acquisition software and creating a Gaussian distribution chart. When the temperature information of the superconducting magnet reaches the highest temperature value in the Gaussian distribution chart, the superconducting magnet position corresponding to the Gaussian distribution chart is found to be the quench position. Specifically, after the superconducting magnet quenches, the absolute position of the optical fiber at the absolute position of the optical fiber is calculated to show that the first temperature signal curve of the superconducting magnet first rises above the critical temperature and then returns to the original temperature, that is, when it presents a Gaussian distribution, the absolute position recorded by the optical fiber at this point is the location where the quench first occurs. Assume that the absolute position of the optical fiber at this point is m, and m is the highest point of the Gaussian distribution. When the value of m is between X0 and X1, the quench can be determined to be at the first turn of the superconducting magnet. When the value of m is between X1 and X2, the quench can be determined to be at the second turn of the superconducting magnet. By analogy, when the value of m is between Xn-1 and Xn, the quench can be determined to be at the nth turn of the superconducting magnet.
[0061] In an alternative approach, see Figure 7 Determining the cause of a superconducting magnet quench based on strain information includes obtaining quench strain information at the time of the quench and comparing the quench strain information with normal strain information of a normal superconducting magnet to determine the cause of the quench. Comparing the quench strain information with normal strain information of a normal superconducting magnet to determine the cause of the quench includes: if the quench strain information changes abruptly, determining that the quench is caused by structural damage to the superconducting magnet; if the quench strain information does not change abruptly and changes linearly, determining that the quench is caused by mechanical deformation of the superconducting magnet; and if the quench strain information does not change, determining that the quench is caused by thermal loss of the superconducting magnet. Specifically, during the cooling process of the superconducting magnet, the signal change curves of the embedded first optical fiber and the embedded second optical fiber are recorded. When the superconducting magnet is excited and a quench occurs, the difference between the signal change curves of the embedded first optical fiber and the embedded second optical fiber recorded by the optical fiber and the optical fiber signal during the cooling process is the signal caused by the mechanical strain of the superconducting magnet. If the measured mechanical strain information suddenly changes during the excitation quench, the quench is determined to be caused by structural damage to the superconducting magnet. If the measured mechanical strain information does not suddenly change and changes linearly, the quench is determined to be caused by mechanical deformation of the superconducting magnet. If the measured mechanical strain information does not change, the quench is determined to be caused by heat loss in the superconducting magnet.
