Abstract

The National High Magnetic Field Laboratory (NHMFL) is designing two series-connected hybrid magnets, one for the Helmholtz Center Berlin (HZB) and the other for the NHMFL. The one for HZB has a horizontal, conical warm bore with a 30 degree opening angle for neutron scattering experiments. The one for the NHMFL has a 40 mm diameter vertical warm bore with a cylindrical profile. The design of the HZB cryostat will be completed this year. In this paper the design of the HZB cryostat is presented. The results of a structural analysis performed for normal operation and for fault scenario are discussed. The main features of the NHMFL cryostat are described shortly in the introduction section.
