ABSTRACT:
The resistor assembly includes a plurality of resistor sections each in the form of resistive plates in which slots have been cut to provide a continuous resistive element of low inductance. The resistor sections are stacked together with thin insulating sheets separating adjacent resistor sections. The resistor sections are serially interconnected. Taps are provided on selected resistor sections to form a plurality of serially connected resistors in which each resistor is electrically isolated from an adjacent resistor but closely thermally coupled thereto. The resistive plates are bound together by discrete bands of an insulating material such as glass cloth tape. Epoxy impregnation allows the resistor assembly when connected in shunt with series connected superconductive coils to be immersed in the liquid helium of a magnet cryostat without causing excessive pressure rise during a quench event.
