Brown, T G

As part of the preconceptual design effort of the Tokamak Fusion Core Experiment (TFCX), several candidate design options have been explored in order to identify a preferred option that will be developed in further detail during the conceptual design phase of the TFCX program. The development of the TFCX concepts has been a collaborative effort between the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) and the Fusion Engineering Design Center (FEDC) with broad community input. The design options being considered include an all-superconducting design, a superconducting/copper toroidal field (TF) hybrid design, and several different all-copper configurations.
