Development of a Bi2212 Dipole Insert at Fermilab

A goal of the U.S. Magnet Development Program (US-MDP) is high-field magnets for accelerators with magnetic fields larger than 15 T, i.e., above the limits of Nb
₃
Sn accelerator magnets. Composite round wires and Rutherford cables made of high temperature superconductor Bi2212 may achieve this goal. Bi2212 is sensitive to transverse stresses and strains, and this requires stress management in the coil design. A stress management approach was developed at Fermilab for high-field large-aperture Nb
₃
Sn accelerator magnets. Now it is being applied to high-field dipole insert coils based on Bi2212 Rutherford cable. This paper describes the insert coil design and main parameters, including the superconducting wire and cable. The coil will be installed inside a 60-mm bore Nb
₃
Sn dipole outsert coil and cold iron yoke. The Bi2212 coil will be tested individually and in series with the Nb
₃
Sn outsert coil. The expected Bi2212 insert test parameters are reported and discussed.
