This paper discusses the basic design of the Poloidal Field Solenoid Coil. It will be mainly concerned with the more unique features of the Solenoid such as the copper coil windings and the design of the epoxy-glass structural support mandrels. The center solenoid coil of the PDX machine consists of five different coil systems. Three concentric fiberglass reinforced epoxy cylinder fabricated in-house will act as mandrels to support and to house the coils that will result as an integral unit. 1 ref., 4 figs., 1 tab.
