Abstract

The National High Magnetic Field Laboratory (NHMFL) has designed and is constructing a Series-Connected Hybrid (SCH) magnet system in Tallahassee, FL. Before the construction of the magnet system can begin many obstacles have to be solved through hardware design and winding practices. The hardware has to have the strength to handle the stresses of winding as well as retaining maximum functionality. The NHMFL will overcome these issues by running several analysis calculations and by producing three model coils for practicing functionality. Two model coils have been built and necessary changes to design and winding procedures have occurred through the practices. These changes will be presented and have been implemented into our winding procedures.
