Abstract :
Because of the relevant impact on the design and on the safety factor of the coil components, an accurate analysis of the quench characteristics of the Swiss LCT coil system was performed. Helium pressure, temperature and flow rate in the forced-flow cooled TUCO conductor and in the other components of the coil system have been calculated using a code developed at SIN. The effect of several parameters and different operating conditions have been investigated.
