The thermal and magnetic stress analyses of the ATLAS Barrel Toroid-B0 coil

The B0 coil is a test-model of the ATLAS Barrel Toroid (BT) coils. It has been installed in the test station at CERN. One important item of the B0 test is the strain/stress measurements. In order to determine the expected stress values at the strain gage locations on the coil casing and the tie rods, detailed thermal and magnetic stress analyses of the B0 coil have been carried out. The analysis results are prepared for a later one-to-one comparison with the measurement results.
