Proposed EBT-P Quench Detection Technique in a Magnetically Noisy Environment

The presence of large magnetic interferences in the EBTP plasma makes the detection of normal zones in the superconductor extremely difficult. A technique has been developed to model these magnetic noises and coil components as mutual inductances. The computer program SPICE was then used to develop a proposed conceptual circuit for reliable protection of the EBT-P mirror coils in the 60 GHz mode that may later be upgraded to 90 GHz operations.
