Model coil for the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) magnet systems
- Naka Joint Work Site, Ibaraki (Japan)
The model coil program for the ITER EDA includes the manufacture and testing of one Central Solenoid (CS) model coil and one Toroidal Field (TF) model coil, and test facility preparations. The CS model coil has an inner diameter of 1.6 m and produces a full field of 13 T. The TF model coil is race-track shaped with an outer dimension of 3 m x 4 m. It will be tested in conjunction with an LCT coil to simulate mechanical load conditions. Different kinds of conductors can be tested as inserts to be placed in the bore of the CS model coil. Two facilities at JAERI and KfK can provide ITER-relevant conditions for testing the model coils and inserts. The model coil program will validate the ITER magnet design and the manufacturing feasibility.
