During the last decades, the quench phenomenon has been one of the most important issues addressed in the superconducting magnets designs. Indeed, the quench transition of a magnet from its superconducting state to its normal state induces a large deposition of the Joule effect energy leading to an abrupt temperature increase in the conductor as well as a large pressure rise in the helium coolant. Any excess of these two parameters can cause an irreversible damage either to the magnet or to the cryogenic system. In order to achieve a better understanding of the quench behavior of the TF coils in the superconducting Tokamak JT-60SA, we carried out both experimental and numerical studies of the thermohydraulic phenomena taking place during the quench of a superconducting magnet manufactured with Cable-In-Conduit Conductor and cooled in forced flow with supercritical helium. In this framework, all the 18 JT-60SA TF coils were tested in a single coil configuration at their nominal operating conditions of current and temperature (25.7 kA and 5 K). A progressive temperature increase has been applied to the helium inlet up to the quench temperature, followed by a current fast discharge as soon as the quench is detected to protect the magnet. The experimental analyses of these tests allowed first to identify several very different dynamic phases in the overall quench propagation time. Then, the physical phenomena driving each one of these phases have been studied and the most predominant ones have been highlighted such as the external heat loads, the strands magnetic performances, the conductive and convective heat transfers between conductors and helium or even the helium expulsion and reverse flow. Based on these experimental analyses, a single pancake numerical model has been developed in the THEA code in order to analyze one physical phenomenon at a time without building a too complex global model of the entire magnet. This single pancake model has been validated on the quench experiments data and has been successfully applied to make further more detailed analyses of the physical phenomena as well as the dynamic phases identified during the TF coils quench propagation. This numerical model even allowed identifying some driving physical phenomena that could not be studied in the experimental analysis, such as the impact of the testing conditions instabilities on the quench dynamics. The very good results of this model and its coherence with physical experimental analyses makes it a very interesting step towards the full modelling of the entire JT-60SA TF coil and the study of its quench behavior in real Tokamak and not test facility conditions.
