An Open-Source Finite Element Quench Simulation Tool for Superconducting Magnets

Abstract: An open-source Finite Element Quench Simulator (FiQuS) is being developed as part of the STEAM framework following CERN's open science policy [1]. The tool is based solely on open-source software and uses Python to generate geometries and meshes with Gmsh, and compute solutions with GetDP. FiQuS scripts have a modular structure in order to accommodate a broad range of geometries and simulation requirements with the main focus on superconducting accelerator magnets. The tool, at its advanced stage, will be capa… Show more

“…In this context, we present a new module of the open-source [10] and parametric finite element quench simulator (FiQuS [11]), which is developed as the part of simulation of transient effects in accelerator magnets [12] (STEAM) framework at CERN The new Pancake3D module can generate geometry, generate mesh, solve and postprocess a magnetodynamic or coupled magneto-thermal FE simulation of a single or stack of multiple NI pancake coils.…”

“…In this contribution, a simulation approach is presented that allows for a full 3D simulation of a CCT magnet and combines two simulation tools to perform parts of the simulation. The Finite Element Quench Simulator (FiQuS) [9,10] and Lumped-Element Dynamic Electro-Thermal (LEDET) [11,12] tools are used. This cooperative simulation (co-simulation) relies on cooperation and data exchange between the tools and has been developed as part of the STEAM framework.…”

“…It can be implemented in any FE software allowing for field-circuit coupling. In this work, the method is implemented in GetDP [28] within FiQuS [29], developed at CERN as part of the STEAM framework [30]. Geometry and mesh generation is performed by Gmsh [31].…”
