If the CORC coil is shorted and only ¾ carries current, then the axial force on the coil will be 7.32 kN (at full field).

The Worst Case Scenario
If the NI-REBCO coil is shorted and only ½ carries the current, then the axial force on the coil will be 1.48 kN (at full field).

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am deeply indebted to my mentor Dr. Andy Gavrilin for his technical training and unflagging support. I would also like to thank Jose Sanchez, Assistant Director, Center for Integrating Research & Learning (CIRL) for hosting the program excellently and the National Science Foundation Research Experience for Undergraduate program for this outstanding research opportunity, funded under DMR 1644779.
NI-REBCO COIL WITHIN PETTEN MAGNET (TOTAL CENTER FIELD 9.31T)
OPERA 15 is used to model a layer-wise wound CORC test coil within the Cryogenic magnet of six coils and a NI-REBCO test coil (Project Hercules), consisting of three modules / double pancakes, within the Petten magnet. The magnetic field, and forces and torques due to misalignments, on each test coil are calculated. Also the fringe fields are calculated at the bottom level of background field magnet system. The worst case scenarios, when the test coils are shorted due to quenching, are viewed as well. The following are portions of results obtained.
