Conclusions Numerical model of the experimental tests Thermal measurement of a short model coil P.P. Granieri - Heat extraction and quench limits16 Perspectives Heat extraction through Nb 3 Sn insulation was measured worse than through LHC Nb-Ti insulation below a ΔT of 1.8 K (in the cable center), since the He II contribution is missing better than through Enhanced Nb-Ti insulation above a ΔT of 5.7 K (in the cable center), because k Nb3Sn > K Nb-Ti 3.7 K 6.4 K scaled to magnet geometry to be confirmed by a dedicated test Heat extraction from the cable allows a first estimate of the quench limit: MQXF mid-plane cable is the most critical: 155 mW/cm 3, vs. 4 mW/cm 3 expected MQXF-MQXC will have a quench limit 2 to 3 times those of MB-MQXA-MQXB
