Review of core technologies for development of 2G HTS NMR/MRI magnet: A status report of progress in Korea University

Blog Article

In this paper, we briefly review our Locking Gel recent progress on development of core technologies for 2G HTS NMR/MRI magnets at Korea University.To outperform the current state-of-art NMR/MRI magnet systems, we have developed the following technologies: 1) a REBCO-REBCO superconducting joint for operation of persistent current mode; 2) partial and grease-insulation winding techniques for self-protection of the HTS magnets; 3) pre-shimming to reduce the screening-current-induced-field; and 4) optimization of multi-width winding to minimize conductor consumption and volume of WELL BEING DE STRESS YOGURT BUFFER GEL the HTS magnets.The test results demonstrated the feasibility of employing the developed techniques to achieve ultra-high-field and LHe-free 2G NMR/MRI magnets possessing self-protecting feature.
