A bstract-A conceptual design of a superconducting magnet for MAGLEV using a Bi-based high-Tc .MAGNET DESIGN superconducting tape is studied. In this study, the This design is based on the magnet for the MAGLEv[l,2]. structure of conductor and coil, AC loss, .stability, current lead, persistent current switch, cryostat structure and cooling system are estimated. The characteristics of our design are as follows;(1) The superconducting coil is cooled by a refrigera-The components of the magnet are designed on basis of existing data and realizable expected value of used materials.
A' High-Tc superconducting tor at 20K and is operated by persistent mode. (2)The coil is constructed by 6 pieces of double pancake coils, and each pancake coil is graded by changing conductor size. (3) The temperature rise of the coil is about 2K due to AC loss. (4) The superconducting stability is very high.
