Abstract

Acoustic emission monitoring on two racetrack superconducting field winding coil was performed during excitation and quenches to diagnose the integrity of the field winding coils. Two field windings were not impregnated with epoxy The results confirm that the acoustic emission signals are mainly due to conductor motions which cause premature quenching of the winding. The quench current of modified racetrack type field winding coil (Type B) are more higher than that of conventional field winding coil (Type A).
