Coil design for magnetic pulse applications

The generation of high magnetic fields for scientific and industrial applications, in particular those techniques which meet critical limits of field strength, coil heating, and mechanical stress as well, require a careful design and modelling. In order to describe the mutual dependences of the electrical, thermodynamical, and mechanical processes in such systems in a reasonable way, the use of multi-physics modules of finite-element software packages becomes more and more relevant. Here, the designs based on finite-element simulations of pulsed magnetic-field coils for industrial applications as well as of their pulsed-power supplies for the generation of electrical-current pulses are presented.
