Electromagnetic-Structural Analysis of a Superconducting Magnet With Active Shielding for a Rotating Gantry
IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON APPLIED SUPERCONDUCTIVITY(2022)
摘要
As a magnet utilized for a rotating gantry in heavy particle radiotherapy, a superconducting magnet with active shielding has been proposed to reduce the magnet weight. The magnet is composed of a dipole coil and an active shielding coil wound with NbTi wires. In this study, an electromagnetic-structural analysis of the magnet with active shielding was conducted using an FEM model. The results of the analysis indicate that the coil deformation, due to an electromagnetic force, slightly affects the field quality but negligible for the operation. The design concept of superconducting magnets with active shielding is valid in terms of magnetic field and the support structure for a rotating gantry. In addition, based on the previous study, the weight of the superconducting magnet with active shielding was revaluated. As a result, the superconducting magnet with active shielding can be one-third lighter than a superconducting magnet surrounded with an iron yoke, in terms of the magnet weight per unit length.
