contents The Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN is used to study the production of new particles in proton-proton collisions at a center of mass energy of 13.6 TeV. The detector includes a magnet based on a 6 m diameter superconducting coil operating at a current of 18.164 kA. This current creates a central magnetic flux density of 3.8 T that allows for the high-precision measurement of the momenta of the produced charged particles using tracking and muon subdetectors. The CMS magnet contains a 10,000 ton flux-return yoke made from the construction steel blocks. These blocks are magnetized, with the coil returned magnetic flux and wrap the muons escaping the hadronic calorimeters. To describe the distribution of the magnetic flux in the magnet yoke layers, a three-dimensional computer model of the CMS magnet is used. To validate the calculations, special measurements are performed, with the flux loops wound in 22 cross-sections of the flux-return yoke blocks. The measured voltages induced in the flux loops during the CMS magnet current variations, are integrated over time to obtain the initial magnetic flux densities in the flux loop cross-sections. In the last time, three fast discharges occurred during the standard ramp-downs of the magnet. This allows us to single out the contributions of the eddy currents, induced in steel, to the flux loop voltages. Accounting for these contributions to the flux loop measurements during intentionally triggered fast discharges in 2006 allows us to perform the validation of the CMS magnet computer model with better precision. The technique for the flux loop measurements and the obtained results are presented and discussed. The method for measuring magnetic flux density in steel blocks described in this study is innovative.
